How to crochet adult slippers
(size 37—38 EU, 6—7 US)

With schemes for increasing/decreasing the size from
~ 35 (~ 4 US) to ~ 41 (~ 10.5 US)

You will need:

1. Fabric yarn with 7—9 mm thread width (1 or 2 yarn balls (100—200 meters), depending on the quality of the yarn, crochet density, single or double soles).

2. Crochet hook 7 or 8 mm (L/11).

Sole. Right slipper

Tie a 20 chains.

(Hint: do not make a week chains! Tighten well first chain, this is done so that as a result there is not a hole on the sole).

Row 1:

2 Half Double Crochet in fourth chain form hook (3 omitted chains will be considered as the first Half Double Crochet in a row). Next, we crochet 1 Half Double Crochet in the next 15 chains and 7 Half Double Crochet in the latest chain.

Turn the crochet and crochet along the second side of the chains: Half Double Crochet in each of the 15 chains and 4 Half Double Crochet in the latest chain.

Connect the last Half Double Crochet of the row with the first Half

Double Crochet (it was a column of 3 chains, we put the hook in the third chain) with a slip stitch.

Total in the row — 44 Half Double Crochet (one of which is 3 chains).

Row 2:

Make 1 chain and than: 2 Single Crochet in one loop; 7 Single crochet; 10 Double crochet; 2 times on 2 Double crochet in one loop; 3 Double crochet in one loop; 2 times on 2 Double crochet in one loop; 11 Double crochet; 7 Single crochet; 2 Single crochet in one loop; 1 Single crochet; slip stitch.

Total in the row — 52 crochet.

Row 3:

Make 1 chain and than: 2 Single Crochet in one loop; 9 Single Crochet; 7 Double crochet; 2 Double crochet in one loop; 2 Double crochet; 2 times on 2 Double crochet in one loop; Double crochet; 4 times on 2 Double crochet in one loop; Double crochet; 2 Double crochet in one loop; 9 Double crochet; 1 Half Double crochet; 10 Double crochet; 2 Double crochet in one loop; 1 Single Crochet; Slip stitch.

Total in the row — 62 crochet.

Sole. Binding

Make the binding around the sole with slip stiches.

Sole. Hiding the thread

Cut the thread, leaving about 10—12 cm, drag it through the first slip

stitch of a row and hide the tip on the underside of the sole,

stretching it between the loops along the entire sole.

If we want a double sole, then we crochet two right soles. And binding two soles at once (we put them on each other and tie them, pulling the hook through two soles).

The sole is ready!
