Crocheted Slipper Socks
I have made these slipper socks off and on for many years. And I have a few friends who hint at wanting a new pair in a new color every time we see a scrap of yarn anywhere.
Today I was looking for the online pattern as I may have some time to do some crochet work. It was during that search that I found the finished slippers for sale in Etsy shops!
Why These Slipper Socks Are Recommended
I have made these slippers for a woman who often gives handmade things to her friends and family as gifts. It was intimidating to make a handmade gift for her, but I did. I gifted her with a pair of these slipper socks that I had made, and she loved them. She wore them daily and is the only person I know of that has worn a pair threadbare. She told me that was only because she wore them daily - including the daily walk down her paved driveway and to her mailbox! That is a high review if I've ever heard one.

I am able to recommend the slippers in this Etsy shop because I am familiar with the pattern. It is an excellent pattern - one that fits well. WiseAcreBoutique also offers customized sizes with your foot measurements. I am aware that this pattern is easy to adjust to unusually long, narrow, or wide fit because of the ease of adjusting the pattern.
A few reasons these slippers are socks are recommended and requested by friends:
- they are made with worsted weight acrylic yarn
- made with two strands of yarn - increasing warmth and softness
- I have always tossed mine into the washer and dryer with no problems
- the pattern creates a "heel" that is not bulky, fits well, and keeps the slipper sock in place
- it seems the ridges under the heel would be uncomfortable when in fact, they provide cushioning
- easy to pack in a suitcase for travel
- can be made in solid and variegated yarns
- the "cuff" can remain upright or be folded down - I like to fold mine down. My friends keep theirs up for added coverage
- the fit is reliable - in similar size ranges as socks.
- the pattern can be adjusted to fit a variety of feet

There is a good chance I will soon make the time to crochet the gifts I've been planning for my friends. Those same friends who have hinted and outright asked for a new pair. The yarn is already purchased and waiting in my closet. But it is still unlikely that I will make the time to crochet a pair for myself. Because of this, it is good to know where I can purchase a pair of these awesome slipper socks for myself.
