You’ll need:

1 skein of Lion Brand 24/7 Cotton in Ecru and Cafe Au Lait (each);

Crochet hooks 3.25mm and 2mm;

Rubber sole flip flops 1 size smaller than you usually wear;

Sharp tool for poking holes in the sole, a skewer works great;

Tapestry needle;

Sharp scissors.

Instructions

Heel

Thumb distance from the holes at the heel, poke holes using your sharp tool in from the side and up through the top of the sole about a 1/4 inch in.

Poke holes all the way around the heel.

Join your cafe au lait yarn with the 2mm crochet hook, Ch 1, Sc in each hole all the way around (carefully, don’t tear the sole!)

Row 2: Change color to ecru with size D hook, Ch 1, turn, Sc in each across, Ch 1, turn

Rows 4-11: Repeat Row 3

Line up your toe piece with where you want it on the toe of your shoe. Poke holes in the same way as the heel along the sides just where the toe piece lies.

Join cafe au lait yarn with the 2mm hook, Ch 1, Sc into the holes along one side, break yarn, and work other side.

With ecru yarn, whip stitch to sew the toe piece to these stitches.

Repeat on the other side and weave ends.
