About this Crochet Slipper Socks Pattern
While they might look like they’ll take weeks to finish, these crochet slipper socks can be made in just a few crochet sessions. I can usually finish a pair on a productive Sunday! With this project, you’ll learn the basics of increasing while using post stitches—a skill that comes in handy for other projects like hats. You’ll also learn how to crochet a simple heel and transition to the top of the slipper for a cozy fit.
These are extra cozy, and great for wearing around the house. But if you want to crochet socks you can wear with shoes, check out this pattern!

Recommended Supplies
- About 225 yds Lion Brand Wool Ease Thick & Quick
- 6.5 mm Crochet hook
- Yarn Needle
- Scissors
One of my favorite yarns to work with is Lion Brand Wool Ease Thick & Quick. It’s incredibly warm, comes in a fun variety of color options, and is readily available at many craft stores. In the pictures, I used the colors “Spice Market” and “Hudson Bay”.
If you can’t find this yarn or you prefer to use something you already have, look for another super bulky (#6) yarn, preferably something with wool content if you don’t have an allergy. Wool content helps to keep them stretchy, breathable, and strong.

Pattern Notes
These crochet slipper socks are worked from the toe up with a built-in heel. If you’re new to post stitches, this pattern is a great way to learn! The entire foot portion of the slipper sock uses post stitches.
Gauge: To check your gauge, crochet the first 2 rounds of the toe. It should measure about 2.75″ in diameter. If needed, adjust your hook size to make sure your first 2 rounds match the diameter so your slipper socks turn out the right size.
Finished Size: Fits a 7″-9″ foot circumference and 9″ foot length; 4″ upper.
These slipper socks come in one size that fits most adults, thanks to the stretchiness around the foot. Before you start, measure the ball of your foot (while standing) to make sure it’s between 7″-9″ in circumference. If it is, they should fit without adjustments.
If your foot circumference is larger than 9″, I recommend using a 7 mm crochet hook (or one size bigger than the hook you used to obtain gauge) for your slipper socks.
You can also add or subtract rounds in the foot length for a custom fit.
