27. Men’s and Women’s Slippers
This pattern is an old pattern and it is now copyright free and in the public domain in 2 different sizes. The yarn for this old pattern is not available anymore, so I redesigned this step-bystep Slipper Pattern in a light gray color, in 3 different sizes, with Red Heart yarn “Supersaver”, worsted weight, 4 ply yarn , and crochet hook H – 8 (5 mm). Crochet this Slipper just with one color, 2 or more colors, dress it up with Fun Fur Yarn, add a cord or ribbon!
