Materials You'll Need:

• Medium-weight yarn (worsted weight) in your desired color (approx. 200-250 yards)
• Crochet hook size H (5mm)
• Scissors
• Yarn needle for weaving in ends

Step 1: Understanding Crochet Basics

Before embarking on the slipper-making adventure, let's brush up on some basic crochet techniques. These fundamental stitches will form the building blocks of your slippers:

1. Foundation Chain (Ch): Create a series of slip knots to form the base of your crocheting.
2. Single Crochet (Sc): Insert your hook into the next stitch, yarn over, and pull up a loop. Yarn over again and draw through both loops on your hook.
3. Half Double Crochet (Hdc): Similar to single crochet, but you yarn over twice before inserting the hook into the next stitch. Yarn over again and draw through all three loops on your hook.

Step 2: Creating the Sole (Foot Base)

Let's start with the foundation of the slippers, the sole.
