Easy Crochet Footwear Instructions

You'll Need

2 skeins of 100% mercerized cotton yarn (107m/50g);

Crochet hook 3.

Instructions

Start with making the toe. Wind the yarn around your finger in a ring, make 8 single crochets and tighten your ring.

Crochet in a spiral with the main pattern, catching stitches through back loops and making increases in the following way:

Row Increases

• 1st row: 2 single crochets in every stitch = 16 stitches;
• 2nd row: *3 single crochets, 3 single crochets in the next stitch*; repeat from * to * = 20 stitches;
• 3rd row: *4 single crochets, 2 single crochets in the next stitch*; repeat from * to * = 24 stitches;
• 4th row: *2 single crochets, 2 single crochets in the next stitch*; repeat from * to * = 32 stitches;
• 5th row: *3 single crochets, 2 single crochets in the next stitch*; repeat from * to * = 40 stitches.

Make 10 rows without increases.

After that, increase the stitches from both sides in the following way: 2 single crochets in 1 stitch of the previous row, 19 single crochets, 2 single crochets in 1 stitch, 19 single crochets = 42 stitches.

Make these increases 3 times in the next 5th row = 48 stitches.

Then, crochet straight to the needed length of your feet to the heel (about 16-17 cm).

Heel

Divide your work into two parts along the sides and continue working only the stitches of the lower part of the foot - about 24 rows of straight rows: turn your work, 24 single crochets, turn.

Then, leave 1 single crochet unfinished until you get to 12 single crochets. Finish these 12 single crochets; after that, start making increases: 1 stitch at the beginning of each row until you get 24 single crochets. Continue crocheting around on all the stitches of the main pattern 5 times.

Cut and fasten the yarn, making side seams of the heel.
