Instructions

Begin with a slip knot that has a beginning tail of yarn about 18” long. Do not bury or weave in ends, as this will be used to finish slippers.

R1: Ch 15 (17, 19), in 2nd ch from hook and each st across work [sc, dc], turn (28, 32, 36). Note: If working the Houndstooth pattern, change colors after each row beginning here, carry unworked yarn under next row.

R2: Ch 1, sc in 1st st, dc in next st, [sc in next st, dc in next st], repeat [] to end, turn (30, 32, 36). Note: From this point on, all sc will be worked in top of dc from prior row and all dc will be worked in top of sc from prior row.

Repeat R2 until desired length is reached.

Sewing the Slippers

Fold slippers in half lengthwise and using the mattress stitch, sew the heel of the slipper. Secure with a knot and weave in all ends.

Using the beginning tail of yarn, weave through the stitches of row 1, pull tight to gather the toe edge, secure with a knot but do not weave in ends.

Continue to sew the slipper together at row ends halfway up the top of the slipper. Secure with a knot and weave in all ends.

Join with yarn in any row end at the back of the slipper and work a sc around the opening.

Optional: Ch 1, [sc in next st, dc in next st], repeat [] around, join and fasten off.

Optional: Add a pom, flower, button, or applique of your choice for extra flair.
