Inspired by Melynda Bernardi’s French Press Slippers, these crocheted slippers are easy, comfortable, and super cute. Great for any time of year and perfect for gifts.

Now available in UK version as well!

This pattern has many images to help you along the process, detailed instructions, and is a project for all types of crocheters! Each slipper is made in an oval round so the only sewing needed is for the strap and button. No seaming required

Included are instructions for sizes Small (5/6 US 3/4 UK), Medium (7/8 US 5/6 UK), and Large (9/10 US 7/8 UK), straps, and that ever-daunting task of felting!
