Flipper Slippers

I have been searching for a 

cute, quirky and easy slipper pattern

 to crochet.

 There are SO MANY!! 

But I am still learning how to read patterns 

and I spent hours making one slipper to get half way through 

to find it 

WAY TOO big. 

I did something wrong. 

So on to making my own. 

I have not seen a pattern or style like this one.....

and I have looked at a lot of slipper patterns. 

I have not written out a normal pattern. 

If I can't read one, than I can't write one. 

I made more of a template for my size. 

I have a page for the top or toe part and then one for the heel part. 

Making this is mostly just how it fits YOUR foot, 

so having a pattern is silly anyway. 

It is very simple.

I used this pattern to make the triangle shape:

Then once I got to the size i needed, 

then I stopped increasing. 

In the following video I show how to measure it to your foot.

I have 15 increase rows and then 8 rows to continue for the heel. 

 I fold down the top point and start the stitch at the 15th row to make the toe part.

.

 

stitch the heel part up.

And done.

So, they are a bit ugly. 

My 5 year-old son says they look like flippers,

thay is why they are the 

Flipper Slippers.

Leave a comment if you have any questions.

I think I made it sound 

way more complicated that it really is.  

Sorry

These are very simple.

Thanks :)
