The pattern in which my slippers are based on is the Drops Crochet Slippers . I wasn't a fan of the strap or edging on these slippers so I made some alterations. I did a simple SC border with a flower from a pattern off of The Life Artistic Blog.
Cute right? They fit perfectly. I use a standard worsted weight acrylic, I've made these in Caron Simply Soft, Vannas Choice and Loops and Threads. I then decided I wanted to try making my own flower (feeling adventurous). I had never 'designed' anything before but thought what the heck, i'll give it a go! My girlfriend wanted a pair of spring time daisy slippers, this is what I came up with:
Daisy Flowers:
Make a magic loop
SC 14 in loop
Change colour - SC in 1st Ch. (Ch 3, skip St, SC in next stitch) repeat around
(SC, DC, TC, DC, SC) in each ch.3 space, slip stitch to beginning
Hope you like them!
