THE LONG SLIPPER SOCK PATTERN with photo tutorial
Materials I used:
4.00mm (UK) hook and Double knit Thick Aran Wool (I am an extremely loose crocheter so please follow measurements and possibly adjust hook size)
This made a perfect size 6 (UK) European 39 and US 8.5
or, for even extra toasty-ness work with 2 strands of Double knit wool together.
Abbreviations: Stitches Used ( written in US terms)
HDC = Half Double Crochet
sl to join - slip stitch to join
How to create the Half Double Crochet Stitch
Make a chain, beginning with the second chain from the hook into the chain stitch, catch the yarn and draw it through the stitch.
You will now have 3 hooks on your hook.
Put the yarn over the hook and draw through all loops at the same time. Leaving 1 loop on the hook.
This is a half double crochet
Special terms of note:
Always start your 1st Half Double Crochet into the BASE of your chain 2 at the start of every round.
Where stated finish with a half double crochet into the join slip stitch of the previous row.
This helps to give the increased shape required for a snug fit by adding 1 extra stitch being created at either side of the chain
