Noro Crochet Slippers Pattern

Noro Crochet Slippers

What Is Being Made

These are cozy crochet slippers designed for comfortable indoor wear. The slippers feature a two-piece construction consisting of a flat-worked top piece and a shaped sole that are seamed together. Available in two sizes with finished measurements of 10 (10½) inches in length and 4¾ inches in width at the ball of the foot, these slippers provide a customizable fit for different foot sizes.

Techniques Used

The Noro Crochet Slippers are constructed using seamed and worked flat techniques. The top of each slipper is worked flat in rows, building up the height and shaping through strategic increases. The sole is worked in the round from a foundation chain, with increases placed strategically to create a foot-shaped base. The two pieces are then joined together using single crochet seams, with an additional slip stitch edging worked around the entire sole for a finished appearance.

Stitches Used

This pattern employs fundamental crochet stitches suitable for an Easy skill level:

• Single crochet (sc) – the primary stitch used throughout both the top and sole pieces
• Half double crochet (hdc) – used in specific areas of the sole for subtle shaping
• Double crochet (dc) – incorporated into the sole construction for textural variation
• Slip stitch (sl st) – used to join rounds and create the finished edging
• Chain (ch) – used for foundation chains and turning chains

Increases are worked throughout by placing 2 stitches in a single stitch, allowing the pieces to expand and shape properly for a comfortable fit.

Materials

The Noro Crochet Slippers are made using Noro Kureyon yarn in colorway #263. The pattern requires 2 (3) skeins depending on which size you are making. A Size E-4 (3.5mm) crochet hook is used to achieve the specified gauge of 20 stitches and 20 rows over 4 inches in single crochet. Stitch markers are recommended to help track your progress through the rounds of the sole.

Gauge and Finishing

Achieving the correct gauge of 20 stitches and 20 rows = 4 inches over single crochet is essential for proper slipper fit. The pattern emphasizes checking gauge before beginning. Once both pieces are complete, finishing involves attaching the top to the sole using single crochet stitches, then working a row of slip stitches around the entire sole edge for a polished, durable finish. An additional row of single crochet is worked along the edge of the slipper top for a refined appearance.
