Notes (Steps to Make Bootie Slippers)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83e\uddf6 <strong>Step 1: Start with the Sole<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Chain 18 (or enough for the length of your foot).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Work single crochet (SC) or half-double crochet (HDC) rows back and forth to create a rectangle or oval sole.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Continue until it fits the bottom of your foot (about 5\u20136 rows).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83e\uddf6 <strong>Step 2: Build the Upper<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Once the sole is ready, crochet around it (working in the round).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Do 4\u20135 rows of HDC or double crochet (DC) around the sole to form the body of the slipper.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83e\uddf6 <strong>Step 3: Shape the Toe<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Count stitches across the front (about 1\/3 of the total).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Decrease stitches in the toe area by skipping or combining stitches (SC2tog or HDC2tog).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Repeat for 2\u20133 rounds until the front is shaped and slightly closed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83e\uddf6 <strong>Step 4: Make the Heel and Ankle<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Leave the heel open, or seam it halfway for a snugger fit.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add a few more rounds around the ankle to create the bootie height.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83e\uddf6 <strong>Step 5: Finishing Touches<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Fasten off and weave in all ends.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add buttons, pom-poms, or a faux fur cuff if you like!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4.
