How to Make Easy One-Piece Crochet Slippers

Beginner Crochet Tutorial

These slippers are crocheted from the toe to the heel in a single piece, then lightly sewn at the back. There’s no complicated shaping, making this a fast and confidence-boosting project for new crocheters.

Materials You’ll Need

Yarn:
- Medium or bulky weight yarn (Category 4 or 5)
- Soft acrylic or wool blend for warmth
Crochet Hook:
- 5–6 mm (H–J)
Scissors
Yarn needle
Measuring tape

Stitches Used (Beginner Level)

Chain (ch)
Single Crochet (sc) or Half Double Crochet (hdc)
Slip Stitch (sl st)

✔️ Use hdc for faster work or sc for a sturdier slipper.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Start at the Toe

Chain 10–12 stitches.
Work sc or hdc in the second chain from the hook.
Crochet across the row.
Chain 1 and turn.
Continue crocheting rows until the piece is wide enough to cover the toes.

👣 This forms the front of the slipper.

Step 2: Crochet the Foot

Continue working back and forth in rows.
Stop when the piece reaches the length of your foot (from toe to heel).

📏 Try it on as you go for a perfect fit.

Step 3: Shape the Heel (One-Piece Method)

Fold the crocheted piece in half.
Slip stitch or sew the back edges together halfway up.
This creates a simple heel cup.

✨ No extra pieces needed!

Step 4: Finish the Slipper

Fasten off and weave in all ends.
Turn the slipper right side out.

Repeat the steps for the second slipper.

Optional: Add a Simple Cuff

Attach yarn at the opening.
Crochet sc or hdc evenly around.
Work 3–5 rounds for a cozy cuff.
Slip stitch to close and fasten off.
