Mini bow slippers - free crochet pattern


Here's a simple pattern for crochet slippers I've made. Maybe the simplest type for slippers crochet pattern but comes with many possibilities.

Materials: (I used)
4,5mm crochet hook
Worsted weight yarn: (Kitchen cotton yarn Lion Brand) color A,B
Yarn needle

Abbreviations:
Ch = Chain

St(s) = Stitch(es)
Sl = Slip stitch
  

Sc Single crochet
Inc = Increase  
Dec = Decrease       
Hdc= Half double crochet
Dec hdc= Half double crochet 2 stitches together
Inc hdc= 2 half double crochet in same stitch

Dc = Double crochet 
Inc dc = 2 double crochet in same stitch
Dec dc = Double crochet 2 stitches together 
Tc = Triple crochet
Dtc = Double triple crochet
Inc tc = 2 triple crochet in same stitch
Dec tc = Triple crochet 2 stitches together
Fpdc = Front post double crochet
Bpdc = Back post double crochet

Note: I used chainless starting dc for every first dc of each round instead of ch 3. There's another good crochet technique to use is ch 2, dc into same stitch ( counted as 1st dc). In the pattern below you'll see I simply state dc for every first dc of each round, so just choose your best technique :) 
These slippers are made for size 37 Europe/ 6.5 US. To adjust the size, use bigger or smaller hook, add or reduce one more round from R4 to 7 and R15 to 18.

Slippers: start with color A yarn.
R1: form a magic ring, 9 dc, sl into 1st stitch to join, 9 sts
R2: inc dc, x 9 times, sl into 1st stitch to join, 18 sts
R3: (sc, inc dc), x 9 times, sl into 1st stitch to join, 27 sts
R4 to 7: dc around, sl into 1st stitch to join, 27 sts

Fold the end in half and seam with slip stitch.

Then simply hdc into the space between 2 every stitches for crochet edging.

Personally, I don't like the pointy heel when crocheting this type of slippers so a little adjustment I made from the last row smoothed this.

Mini bow: (make 2) using color B yarn
Form a magic ring, work all into the ring: (ch 3, dc, tc, dc, ch 3, sl into ring) x 2 times, fasten off the ring. Use color A yarn to wrap around the middle.

  1. This looks like the perfect slipper I can make for my disabled mother who is not walking and wheelchair bound. I like her to have something on her feet over her socks, and her store bought slippers dont stay on her feet anymore. Thank you!
