Favorite Bootie Slippers & Boot Socks

SUPER EASY. I just love these, this is the original pattern seen here. Go to the link to see more photos. 

Mama Kat says: "Make them snug enough but not tight.This pattern works so I didn't deviate from it. These can also become a long sock for boots."

Rnd 1: Magic Circle (or chain 3, slip into first and hdc for 6 in ring created) Ch 2 (counts as 1st HDC) work 5 HDC into magic circle slip stitch to join (6)

Rnd 2: ch 2 (1st HDC in the base of chain and here on in) 2 HDC in each stitch around, slip to join

Rnd 3: ch 2. 1 hdc in next st. 2 hdc in next st. repeat around. join. (12) 

Rnd 4: ch 2. 1 hdc in each st around. slip to join, continue working like this (remembering to create the extra hdc in the previous slip to join and the base of chain st) until you can place the length of the slipper over your foot, to the base of your ankle

Here you will work the heel. ch 2. (continue adding 1st hdc in base of chain) hdc until you have 12 stitches remaining stop here. turn and Chain 2 HDC across continue this till foot area is length you want. (I had 20 rows in total) from toe to back of heel) 

You want the slipper to be a snug fit, so when you get to the heel, put right sides together and slip stitch together. This is the basic Slipper Pattern, you can finish off here by completing 1 round of single crochet around the top of the slipper, and have a lovely pair of slip on slippers.

Continue for creating the ankle and boot length: Working in the round, HDC pick up stitches along the top of slipper. Working in HDC chain2 HDC around slip into 1st stitch (do not add in the extra stitches here, unless for making for a man who has wider calves) I find 1 hdc in each base of chains is enough increace to give a snug fit for a woman. Continue working in HDC until desired length of Sock boot is achieved. ~ Pattern by Lisa Auch.
