How to Crochet Slipper Boots

These crochet slippers are made in three pieces and joined together.

First, you’ll crochet the soles and uppers of the slipper boot in rows.

Next, you’ll join the soles to the uppers by working single crochet around the perimeter of the sole.

Then you’ll crochet the ankle onto the slipper.

Lastly, you’ll crochet the mock smock crochet boot cuff and sew them onto the slipper boot.

How to Make Crochet Slippers Non-Slip

Handmade slippers are great, but they can be super slippery on hard surfaces!

When my kids were little and we had hardwood floors and stairs, I was always worried about them slipping and falling. So, when I started crocheting slippers for them, I wanted a fun, quick, and easy way to make the soles non-slip.

That’s when I remembered making non-slip socks with my friends for a high school sock hop. We used Tulip Puff Paint for our socks so I figured why not try it on the kids slippers… it worked great!

My kids loved being able to choose their own colors and help paint shapes on the soles of their slippers. They made little stars, hearts, and squiggly lines and their favorite was the glow-in-the-dark puff paint.

Although there are many great options to keep crochet slippers from slipping, such as Plasti Dip or sewing non-slip fabric onto the soles, I’ve found that the easiest, most fun, and most cost effective is Tulip Puff Paint!

Outdoor Crochet Soles: Another great option is to attach your slipper boots to an outdoor sole.

Yarn

For these women’s slipper boots, I wanted to make sure my toes would be toasty warm, and at the same time not have too much bulk around my ankles. Because of this, I chose to use Lion Brand Hue & Me bulky yarn to add extra warmth to these chunky crochet slipper boots and then Lion Brand Yarn Wool Ease to add lightweight, textured cuffs.

Hue & Me yarn is a chunky weight / 5 yarn that is an acrylic wool blend that is perfect for making warm slipper boots.

Lion Brand Wool Ease is a worsted weight / 4 yarns that’ perfect for adding a little style and texture to your slippers.

Finishing Stitches

The finishing stitches you’ll be adding are to tie together the first and last rows of the cuff. They are decorative stitches that mimic the double crochet stitches you worked 4 rows down throughout the slipper cuff. These stitches are made using only a yarn needle and piece of yarn that you will use to connect two rows of stitches.

Continue on to complete the second set of finishing stitches.

Second Set of Finishing Stitches

The second set of finishing stitches is worked in the top of the dc’s from Row 65 & the bottom of Row 1 dc’s.

Note: The vertical edge on the right in the photo above is the edge that you will whipstitch to the top of the ankle opening.

Weave in ends. Continue on to Attaching the Cuff to the Ankle.

Attaching the Cuff to the Ankle of the Slipper Boot

Step 1: Slip the finished cuff over the ankle of the slipper boot. Position it so that the seam in the cuff is at the back side of the ankle of the slipper boot. See the photo above to see which edge of the cuff is the top edge.

Step 2: With tail of yarn and a yarn needle, whipstitch the top edge of the cuff to the top edge of the ankle. I only whipstitched the slip stitch rows of the cuff to the stitches around the ankle opening. I did not whipstitch into any of the sc or hdc rows of the cuff. Stitch counts vary between the two openings, just position the stitches evenly around.
