CLICK HERE for The New Version of this Slipper. This one has a no-sew sole. (The sole
is made in one piece and then you continue crocheting the rest of the slipper.)
MATERIALS
1 - 50g ball of 4 ply knitting worsted for Color A.
1 - 50g ball of 4 ply knitting worsted for Color B.
You can use whatever colors you want. I used blue and white.
(This is an estimate, I usually buy larger sizes,
so I am really not sure how much I used)
Hook - 4.50 mm (H-8 US size)
Gauge - 4 sc = 1 inch, 4 rows of sc = 1 inch
My notes, such as - where to make adjustments for other sizes,
are in blue.

SIZE is for Medium with changes for small and large in brackets.
Small will fit a foot length of 7 1/2 to 8 1/2 inches, Medium will fit a foot length of
9 to 10 inches, Large will fit a foot length of 10 1/2 to 11 1/2 inches. For extra
large slippers, use a larger hook size. I wouldn't go any larger than a size
6.00 mm (J-10 US). For extra small slippers, use a smaller hook. I wouldn't
go any smaller than 3.75 (F-5 US) as it may be too difficult to work with.
You could try a sportweight yarn with a smaller hook for even smaller sizes.
