One Slipper…2 versions!
This Shell Slipper Sock is easy to put on and off. It has one large button to close the cuff around the ankle. It’s worked in a shell type pattern. The foot is worked in the round, then is worked in rows for the heal. The cuff is attached and worked in rows. It’s an easy quick slipper to make!
I used a 4mm/G hook for the Small size, 4.5mm Hook for Medium size and 5mm.H hook for Large size. You could also make the slipper larger by working more rows on the heal. Or to make it smaller, work less rows on the heal.
Depending on your tension, you may need to adjust your hook size up or down to get the fit you like. (I noticed when working with I Love This Yarn, I needed to go up a hook size for proper fit.)

I have also added a Second Option for making the slipper without the wide buttoned cuff. This version is more like a ballet slipper, with a narrow finish around the cuff.

You will need worsted weight yarn in 2 colors Or, you could make the Shell Slipper Sock all in one color!
Also, you’ll need two 1” Buttons for the Cuff Version of the Slipper.
