How to Crochet the Strawberry Blossom Slipper Socks

[@marceletethompsonyoung6299]

I learned to crochet when I was about 8 at a summer camp and never went back to it. Some co-workers reintroduced me to crocheting this past year (35 years later)and I still was not catching on so my co-workers recommended watching KZbin videos. I subscribed to you and have enjoyed all of your videos. Thank you so much for the videos. 💐 They are absolutely wonderful and easy for me to follow along. All the Best!

[@TruHappinessDC]

I was Granny's baby she did amazing knit & crochet work. I always had dresses, sweaters slippers, skirts, hats, scarves & blankets she handmade me. She taught me when I was about 8 as well. I never did have much patience to sit still long enough to make anything but a quick scarf. It took 9/11 for me to start back crocheting when I had to fly, to keep my mind occupied & calm as I flew often on 4&5hr flights. I still didn't have much patience on the ground to finish projects. Until now, about 40yrs later I have a granddaughter! I want her to know Granny's love the same way I did. I've been making her the cutest things. My daughter in law too.

This would be a great tutorial for Christmas gifts. Thank you for sharing again, Jennifer!

[@helenemcgregor1872]

I am currently making lap blankets for my Nursing Home Ministry. These slipper socks are just perfect to go along with these blankets. Thanks for the tutorial

[@leeritz9187]

Oh my god thank you for this video I'm a beginner and have been trying to find a sock pattern that would fit my baby brother size and that would be easy enough for me to understand yours is the only one that I could find for his size I hope you make more for crocheting videos like this I am subscribing to your Channel👍👍👍👍👍

[@FireAngel741]

For the people having trouble with it widening, try counting your stitches as you go to make sure you don't gain stitches. I had problems with that on other projects and it help me. Hope you find it useful.

[@salinabertin3889]

Literally me rn 😂 I was like this is starting to look like a hat not a sock 🤣

[@pattismith1990]

Just darling. Your a very good teacher you don't waste slot of time chattering on and on ...I learned slot and I'm going to subscribe. Beautiful work. Thanks so much

[@salinabertin3889]

Very nice! Just finished them in a solid color. For people having trouble from the third row up, I counted 17 stitches per row and did a total of 20 rounds.

[@allison5810]

Ooooo Jennifer I can't wait to make these!!!! Love the drawstring and pom poms!!! Your granny square pattern inspired me to write a pattern for slippers. Thank you for your wonder patterns and videos!!! Allie

[@evelynrogers6766]

Easiest pattern I have found so far. I'm going to try this one! Thank you!!!

[@simoneretro3619]

[@paulinefulwood8972]

Hi good morning just come across your tutorial this is the simplest tutorial i have seen on youtube thank you

[@msdeedee1808]

Love this! Was looking for a quick and simple project for socks. Thank you so much!

[@lovelychaoticness93]

I'm fairly new to crochet in and I usually make do with what I have on hand. I tried to do this MULTIPLE times with my 9mm crochet hook (literally 6 times, threw the yarn) and then I couldn't find my 9mm crochet hook. The only other one I have is a 5.25 mm and this is working GREAT! It just kept getting wider when I used the 9mm, and it was definitely my fault, but my 5.25 with bulky yarn is really starting to look cozy. Just in case anyone else is struggling!

[@fiberflux]

+Jenny Croucher Thank you! These are so super easy, I hope you have fun making them!! :)

[@dunyamm8261]

Thank you for sharing you are really easy to follow I've just made one sooo happy😁👍🏻

[@desireer8175]

Love this tutorial! So easy to follow along with and the pattern is perfect for beginners who want to make something that doesn't look like just a simple beginner piece! Question: can we decrease the amount of single and double crochets we do in the very first step to make a smaller pair of socks? I did the suggested 11 chains around the circle and after about 6 rows I noticed the socks were going to be WAY too big for my feet... is there a way to make them come out smaller for smaller feet??

[@Godisgood414]

Thank you you are a great teacher

[@DoLiLoLi12]

I love this pattern it's super easy!

[@elfridegely9332]

Merci beaucoup Je voulais faire .Mais je ne trouvais pas. Encore merci c'est vrai c'est facile .

[@kathleenmellow8963]

Thank you. Well done

[@nickikreidermacher7164]

I really love these but how do you keep them from getting so wide? I have fat feet and bigger calves but these are too big and I did exactly what you did? Please help

[@itsYourChance]

Do u think a rubber sole could be glued to bottom?

[@heidiputman2956]

these would be so cute for kids in hospital for when they have to wear ropes all the time

[@sebrineidris7711]

I love your video Thank you

[@SaraSach]

I love these.

[@anitawhittico7735]

Hi Ms Sara Sach!! I'm waiting for your tube socks, I know you put a twist on them

[@dianemckendry8732]

what do you use to make this sock for little girls

[@dwilson3556]

My socks do not look as narrow as your socks, and I followed the pattern. I am wondering about using not so chunky of yarn.

[@tracey4759]

D Wilson Yeah, my socks are becoming wide as they get longer. I don't know how to prevent them from widening.

[@jessicadawson8440]

Same. I had to pull my entire sock. I figured out that I was putting a double crochet in the last stitch on my round when I wasn't supposed to be. I still had a wideness problem. They still fit but I ended up on the last round double crochet decreasing two evenly. I used the same yarn and the same hook. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

[@amryasser9939]

so cute I love them

[@fiberflux]

+amr yasser Thanks! :)

[@lovess4051]

so pretty

[@CarmenTorres-jj9ph]

Love the project! And also where did you get your hook?, I love the rustic look, thanks in advance 😊

[@priyabhat1329]

I love u r hook..may I ask where did u get it..its pretty

[@vidushisharma8572]

Hi! What about the heel part? How would it slip up through the heel? Please guide. Thanks

[@summerbelk6577]

I love your crochet hook. Where can I get it?

[@Crystalsyarnarycreation]

I have chunky five could that work but just use a 8 mm hook

[@cearajones8900]

how would i size this for a 4 yr old? would i use less chains in the beginning or less than 11 double crochet stitches in the beginning?

[@peggybenedict3906]

Would you have a pattern for kids like this

[@lakishiabussell9268]

how many double crochet are in round 3? thank you.

[@zombom1]

hello there looks so adorable with a helpful instruction , this is nothing but cool ; can't wait to crochet one for me and for my boy , he is 5 years old and he size 28 , so will you please tell me the size of the needle for his socks ; thanks in advance :)

[@shaylengould4807]

Try an H or a G hook

[@yassaminrose]

Thanks 👍🏻💕💕

[@delorismcgee203]

I love this pattern but the longer you go the sock gets wider what can you do about this. ... I see i am not the only one with this problem. ... Please answer

[@mareerahimi1485]

how many double crochets in row 3 onwards? im getting chain 3 +17?

[@oraibabdulla]

Do you know how to expand the size? I want more width please

[@brittanycarr9578]

can you use any kind of yarn?

[@qaisarnadeem1256]

plz do a tutorial on baby boots

[@jenniferpoynter5326]

I can't find a 9 mm hook should I go to a 10 or an 8 ?

[@thatgirlwiththatbook2191]

Hi! Is this beginning?

[@ingridbortner1025]

Couldn't find the written pattern on your link.

[@marywhitaker8140]

how many ball of yarn do I need to make pair

[@dunniam3168]

I love them. ♡♡♡♡

[@lizs8711]

In this video she did 2 than 1, not one than 2... took me awhile to figure that OUT! Don't double crochet in the same stitch slip stitch...

[@LaniAnne402]

Liz S you’re correct! The last video was 1 dbl crochet in one then two dbl cr in every other. My socks don’t match because I followed the first video then somehow got the instructions confused. 😄

[@tracey4759]

I followed the directions but my sock is widening as it gets longer. Why is that and how do I prevent this and or fix it?

[@rachelvanhooser2683]

Did you by chance figure out why? I am having the same issue...is there a step missing?

[@tracey4759]

Rachel Vanhooser I did figure it out. There is no missing step. After you chain 3 for the next row you must properly locate the 1st stitch. Otherwise it will widen with every round if you use the stitch behind the 1st stitch.

[@rachelvanhooser2683]

Thank you so much!!!

[@tracey4759]

Rachel Vanhooser you're welcome 😘

[@robinroccaforte2038]

These slipper socks are so

[@robinroccaforte2038]

Nice

[@rachelvanhooser2683]

I am on my 4th attempt at these and having the same problem as someone mentioned below....After row 3 they continue to grow out in width....??? What am I doing wrong?? Thanks!!!!

[@sondrab1881]

Rachel, I see that your post on here is a year old so you have probably either finished your socks or given up. I made a sample of this pattern using acrylic yarn and size "J" hook because I couldn't understand why a lot of people said the sock got wider. If we're supposed to put 1 stitch in each stitch after row 2, you should have the same number of stitches around in each row all the way to the top of the sock, right? By counting my stitches each row I immediately discovered MY problem-- I was putting a double crochet stitch in the slip stitch (joining stitch) of the previous, each row was getting wider!! This may not have been your problem but like I said I found it to be mine, I was doing that without even realizing it until I counted the stitches.

[@briannaschroeder8943]

Could I use a less chunky yarn and double it up?

[@sekhmetselene]

Brianna Schroeder Yes.

[@amalynxo]

Okay got a little question when I make a circle in the beginning I can barely see the wholes to make a double crothet?

[@amalynxo]

*holes*

[@im8555]

This might be to late but when you chain 4 and make a circle you then work in the circle to make round 1 not the stitches . Round 2 you work into the actual stitches

[@butterfly4031]

Will this fit any size foot? I like to make a pair for my 12 year old niece.

[@amalynxo]

I think so

[@LaniAnne402]

I’d like to know the count of stitches in row three and beyond...I’ve gotten different counts, either 22 or 18...😳

[@rhettsamir5180]

pro tip : watch series at Flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching lots of of movies these days.

[@gannongus2419]

@Rhett Samir definitely, I've been using flixzone for months myself =)

[@bukkysubulade6954]

my project continuously gets wider as i go along. i'm not sure what i'm doing wrong

[@tammytays6073]

This pattern is really easy, however, sock keeps getting wider with each row. A stitch count at the end of increase row then each row after that would be helpful both in the pattern and in the video tutorial. I did the math and the increase row was 17 stitches (the row before that was 11) from my calculations, however, my rows still keep increasing. If anyone else can get a number on their stitch count, please do share.

[@allisonking2637]

can you still make these, but starting off with a magic ring instead?

[@sekhmetselene]

Allison King Possibly.

[@whynotbekind1957]

Allison King yes

[@amalynxo]

NEW SUB LOVE YOU

[@marywhitaker8140]

I NEED TO KNOW IF I CAN USE RED HEART SUPER SAVER YARN TO MAKE THE SLIPPER SOCK, LET ME KNOW I WANT TO TRY IT TODAY

[@kaitlinvaughan1938]

mary whitaker yes you can... but you would need to use an appropriate sized hook for the yarn since red heart is a 4 and this yarn is a 6...which means you would need to crochet more rounds and stitches to account for size difference so it can still fit your calves and feet. Also, the socks will not be as comfy since red heart is acrylic yarn where as lion brand wool ease is wool

[@TruHappinessDC]

+Katie Vaughan Thanx!!! I have forbidden myself from buying not another skein of yarn until I have used the 3 big trash bags full I have already accumulated but haven't used. I got most of it from an Estate sale or local thrift shop. Many are already in balls with no labels so I'm not exactly certain the brand or weight. I'm eyeballing it based on texture & feel. Looks like I have quite a bit of super saver acrylic.

[@tatdprncss26]

Tru Happiness you sound about like me! lol the only reason I have this actual brand now is because Santa brought me several skeins in my stocking 😊

[@TruHappinessDC]

+MelanieEdgil I was in Walmart earlier today lusting over color combos but I resisted the urge & left them right there as pretty as they were

[@tatdprncss26]

Tru Happiness yep. I had to be dragged out of Hobby Lobby away from the clearance yarn aisle. such gorgeous colors.

[@sophiemaisonneuve4571]

It’s 18 stiches for the rest of the project

[@peggyshea-robichaud6213]

Where do I get the pattern? Do I have to write it?

[@fiberflux]

Hi there, The link to the written pattern is in the information section below the video. Hope that helps!

[@janicecox34]

What are the stitch counts of the 3 rows?

[@PeggyV69]

I was counting stitches while watching the video as I was making notes. You go from 12 stitches to 18 stitches with round 2 & then stay at 18 stitches the rest of the sock. :)

[@janicecox34]

Peggy thats what I thought it was. I just kept getting a big hole between the ch3 and the first stitch. So I tweaked it a bit. Lol

[@jasminestephens5294]

Janice Cox same here. I’m thinking of trying a smaller hook. But what technique did you use to get it to work for you?

[@11thShadowDragon]

I think I'll make these and crochet some sashay ruffles every few rows, or make some butterflies to attach to the top. Or both. XD

[@asiastoute7854]

I love this I made a pere and it is soooooooo cute 🤣😂😂😙😚😗😅🤣😎😋😊😁😆

[@suzyrie3460]

What size foot do these fit?

[@fiberflux]

+Suzy Rie Great question! These are constructed in a "tube sock" style, so they don't have a traditional heel. That means they can fit any length foot, and if you need them to be taller, just repeat round 3 until you get to the needed height. Hope that helps and happy crocheting!

[@samirahwalker4349]

My socks keep turning out like v’s instead of u’s.. do you have an idea what I’m doing wrong ?

[@sondrab1881]

Without even realizing it, until I counted the stitches, I was putting a double crochet in the joining stitch of the previous row, making the sock get wider. Since we're putting 1 stitch in each stitch after row 2 (should have 18 stitches, I think): each row should have 18 stitches all the way to the top of the sock.

[@kamillewashington885]

I'm trying so hard to do this but I'm left handed and it's backwards for me..

[@tatdprncss26]

Kamille Washington I'm left handed as well. there is a left handed crochet channel, or one that I've found. her channel is called ilovenails. there just aren't that many out there. perhaps you or I should make a channel 😝

[@luizah4886]

gostei mais não entendo sua língua.

[@babycheesa8020]

Where is the heel

[@laace2003]

Baby Cheesa no heel. It's a tube sock.

[@samjosh4hjbf]

The socks are adorable, but I can't finish watching the video, I am one the few people with Misphonia :((( The wiping of the table so often triggers this!!!

[@soniarosas2626]

You do it to fast
