My Boogie man wanted me to make him some slippers, so I thought I'd try just freehanding them. Since I wrote down the pattern as I went along making the first one (so they'd be exactly the same lol) I thought I'd post it on here for others who want an easy, quick pair of slippers.
The pattern I wrote down is for a 4 year old (about 6.5" long foot - sm child I guess you'd call it), but the way it's worked up it can easily be used to make other sizes. I will make notes along the way marked with * to make changes, with a picture at the bottom to try and show what is meant. Please note, this pattern has not been tested so if you find errors or just have questions, please let me know. If you do make some, I'd love if you'd share a picture on my Facebook page
EASY PEASY SLIPPERS - CHILD SM
with adjustments to make other sizes
You need a size I/9/5.5mm hook, WW yarn, and a yarn needle
The gauge is 3 hdc X 3 rows=1" but for other sizes, gauge (or yarn/hook combo, or stitch, for that matter) is not very important, as long as you have measurements (or a foot) to work with
