Snappy Slippers!
Well, we are in the home stretch. Only a few days left to Christmas. This week I’ll be sharing several last minute gift ideas with you and The Snappy Slippers is the first!
Snappy Slippers were so named because they make up in a snap! I used bulky yarn and a 6.5mm hook and even the large size took me less than one hour per pair! This slipper is an easy slip on with a banded ankle. It’s kind of a cross between a slipper and sock. I love the way they fit and in the bulky yarn they are very warm too.
I used basic stitches with minimal shaping and I have included sizing form women’s 5/6 to men’s 12/13 and three widths! You should be able to find a size that fits just about everyone!
