Women’s Quick and Easy Slipper Socks – Free Crochet Pattern in 9 Sizes

November 18, 2015

This is a free crochet pattern for how to crochet my Women’s Quick and Easy Slipper Socks – an easy slipper pattern worked in simple half double crochet stitches with your favorite worsted weight yarn.

Find the free crochet pattern instructions below, or purchase a printer-friendly, ad-free PDF on Ravelry by clicking here.

I have been working on this pattern for a while now. It’s one of those things that you start… put down… pick back up… put back down… and then finally finish. I am happy to share this Quick & Easy Slipper Sock Crochet Pattern in 9 Women’s Sizes!

This pattern has been tested several times by myself with different sizes on my friends, as well as slippers being washed multiple times. This slipper pattern is comprised of simple half double crochets.

Before we go on, it’s important to measure the diameter, and the finished slipper BEFORE trying on. Red Heart Super Saver is a great yarn for so many different projects, but it’s also a little inconsistent. Just because you gauge with one color, does not mean you will meet gauge worked in another color – I’ve learned this the hard way. I am providing the diameters to check against, and the finished slipper should be about 2″ smaller than the actual foot length. I recommend measuring every time you make a pair.

Kids Quick and Easy Slipper Socks in Toddler & Big Kids Sizes

Men’s Quick & Easy Slipper Socks in 13 US Sizes

Materials:

  • 74 – 118 Yards of a heavier Worsted Weight Yarn – I used Red Heart’s Super Saver
  • I9/5.5mm Crochet Hook
  • Tapestry Needle for Weaving in Ends

Material Notes:

Yarn Alternatives: Bernat’s Super Value Yarn, Caron’s One Pound, Hobby Lobby’s Crafters Secret.

I did make and test out some slippers using Vanna’s Choice Yarn, and while they worked up well, the yarn wasn’t as durable as the Super Saver yarn and became rather frizzy rather quickly. I also choose the Super Saver yarn because it has a nice cushion to it, and feels quite nice as it hugs your feet. For anyone with concerns regarding the rough feel – it will get softer after the first wash.

Time Spent:

Roughly 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes (depending on size).

Sizes Included:

Included are Women’s US sizes 4 through 12.5. Foot sizes are included below. Choose the one best suited for your foot. Half sizes included for reference, but slipper size will be to whole size.

Gauge:

  • Recommended: Follow instructions for the crown of the slipper, and check diameter to meet gauge.
  • Straight Stitches: 12 HDC by 7 Rows – 4″ x 3″

Abbreviations (US Term):

  • HDC – Half Double Crochet (Photo Tutorial)

Pattern Notes:

Shoe sizes are not the same throughout – I have learned that through much research as I am sure many of you have realized while shoe shopping. Foot lengths are included below – choose the one that best suits your foot. For example, I wear a size 8.5 sneaker and 9 sandal. My foot size is 10″ so following the numbers below, I made myself a pair of the size 9 – 9.5 slippers.

Having the beginning increase split on either side of the beginning chain helps keep the seam straight. If you are not comfortable with this way to the traditional, work using the technique that is best for you.

Join to the first half double crochet, not the beginning chain.

I recommend weaving in the beginning tail after Round 3 is finished.

Finished slipper will be about two inches shorter than foot. If using other yarns than I named, your easy could/will probably vary.

Slipper FAQ:

How do I start with a chain 3? Do I still need to make a ring? With 8/9 half double crochets in the first round, the circle does not lay flat – it cups rather, so to counter balance this cupping, we start with a chain 3, and work our round into the very first chain, instead of a ring. Make sure to leave a longer than normal tail as it will take some length away from it with the addition of stitches.

Where do I join the first round? You will slip stitch join to the first stitch of the round. If you are unsure of which stitch this is, count backwards from where your last stitch is counting it as one. In this example, I have 8 stitches.

What do you mean that you split the beginning increase? And what does “1 HDC in the next/first stitch” mean? I split my beginning increase to help keep my seam straight. I work the first stitch as normal into the first stitch of the round which is to the left of the beginning chain (indicated by the arrow on the left), and then I work the second stitch of that first increase into the same stitch as the first, but to the right of the beginning chain (indicated by the arrow on the right). By hugging the beginning chain, the seam remains straight, rather than slanted.

What if I don’t want the seam to show on the top of my slipper? I designed this slipper to be really easy with minimal sewing, so the seam shows on the top, but if you don’t want the seam to show, you can fasten off your yarn after the first half of the slipper is done, flip the piece 180 degrees around so the seam is even along the back, then find the center of the new front, and join your yarn to begin the second half of the slipper.

What is the difference between working around, and across? Working around means joined rounds, and working across means rows back and forth with no join. There are two halves to this slipper, the first half worked in rounds to fit over the foot, and the second half worked in rows to create the opening for the foot.

Where are the instructions for the heel? Indicated in each size are instructions to “scroll down to finish” where we seam up the back opening of the slipper to make it wearable.

    You should test your hook and yarn by working up a gauge to start with. If your gauge measures smaller than mine, then you need to go up a hook size. If your gauge measures bigger than mine, then you need to go down a hook size.
    When your gauge matches, then you start working your pattern.
    If you don't gauge beforehand, your finished slipper might come out too little or too big.

      I haven't done children sizes yet so I am not sure what foot sizes are equal to what size. I have provided the foot size each slipper fits. If you can, measure the length of the childs foot and see if it fits the range provided.

      The first half in which you are joining is worked in rounds, while the second half in which you are not joining is worked in rows.

      You can apply puffy paint to the bottom. In a few comments up, Linda mentioned hot glue.

        I don’t currently have the means of making any videos. I would like to invest in the equipment, but can’t at the moment.

        When I give as gifts, I just include a note with care instructions that say, “Turn inside out. Machine wash in cold water on gentle cycle. Tumble dry low heat.”

          I found that if you use hot glue to stop slipping, do not dry in the dryer. The glue can stick to the sides of the dryer and make a big mess. Love hand crocheted slippers.

    I think I messed up royally. I am making a ladies size 7. I followed the directions to round 21. The slipper only comes half way up my foot. Nowhere near a size 7. Then to finish, it sounds like there is only one more round.

    Where did I go wrong?

    Using Simply Soft Caron yarn with a size 4.5mm hook. It’s the hook I always use with this brand of yarn
    Any help would be appreciated!

    I’ve made several pairs of these slippers. I’ve used different hook sizes and yarn sizes as well, got a variety of sized slippers. I even doubled my yarn and ended up with a slipper you can walk on leggo with. All have worked out quite well. Thx. Good pattern. Very versatile.

    Do you have a pattern for men’s slippers? Grandson is a size 12 men’s.

      Not sure what size your husband wears, but some sizes are really close together and could stretch to fit, especially since acrylic yarn stretches soooo much! Make sure to check gauge.

      Hello, are you supposed to be making the chain 13 + r2-7 And then making the R 1-24 And then connecting the two parts ?

        Hi Elizabeth! The first part you mentioned is the gauge sample. This is what you work up to make sure your slippers will turn out the correct size. Sometimes of the gauge is off, you may need to go up or down a hook size to match up.
        The second part you mentioned is the actual instructions for making the slipper.

      I don’t add anything to mine, but you could add hot glue or puffy paint along the bottom. They also sell sprays you can add. I haven’t done either so I don’t have much experience, but the puffy paint seems easy, and probably on hand. Whistle & Ivy did a post, maybe last year, of several tested ways (by her) – she is an excellent resource, check her out.

      Any additional stitch beyond 8 HDC will equal 9 stitches. 8 + 1 = 9 so how can I finish with 8 stitches? Or do you just ignore that extra stitch in the next round?

    I ended up doing the magic ring start to make the hole a bit smaller at the toe. I chained two instead of three since I was using the ring to crochet the hdc in. Then I continued on with the pattern as usual. It’s working up great. Thanks for the easy pattern and all the picture directions. I love this pattern.

      As long as you picked the correct size for your foot length, than it’s fine. This slipper is designed to be 2″ shorter than your foot length to accomodate the yarn stretch.

          With a project that the finished size is essential, taking measurements and gauge is super important.

    Hey there! I have been crocheting for around 2 months, and I showed myself how. I have not tried reading patterns yet, and this pattern seems easy! Right now, I am making for someone who lives far away, and I am making a size 9, and it seems small. I am on round 5, and I use red heart super saver with a 5mm crochet hook (I crochet loosely). Is this supposed to happen, or did I do something wrong? I will try to finish it.

      First, did you take gauge? It is super important when the finished size is essential, like this one.

      If you’ve met gauge, the finished slipper is supposed to be 2″ shorter than the actual foot length to accomodate the stretch of the yarn.

        Hey,
        I finished it, and it did look a little strange, so… I made another, and it turned out perfectly! I was confused about some of the stitches, but I got it all worked out now. Thanks for the pattern! I will try your men’s size slippers for my brother and kid-size slippers for my sister. Thanks!

    Thank you for your slipper pattern. I’ve tried a few that I found more difficult – I’d start, get frustrated tear it all apart and start over. I was so happy to finally find a pattern that was easy to use and follow. I started a pair for myself last night and finished them today. Yay!!! I got faster with the 2nd slipper!

    Note on hot glue use. There are High temp and Low temp glue sticks. This may be why some have had a mess drying slippers IN the dryer. When in question, don’t use glue sticks for non-slip!

    Your patterns for Men, women and children have been a life saver for me! This time at Christmas! Again!
    Thank you so much, many times over!
