Christmas in July Make Along

This pattern was designed for the 2019 Christmas in July Make Along. Underground Crafter is kicking off the holiday season with 31 days of handmade designs, and a giveaway too! Get all the details here.

The Christmas in July event is divided into 5 weekly themes. This week’s theme is gifts for men, so of course I tried to think of something to make for my husband. He already has a shelf full of handmade scarves and hats, so this year I decided on slippers. I went with a simple, no-fuss design, made in a thick, warm yarn.

Lion Brand Color Made Easy yarn

Lion Brand originally sent me this Color Made Easy yarn for free for my Cobblestone Lane knit scarf pattern. I’m madly in love with how squishy and soft it is, and had just enough left over for these cozy, easy, crochet slippers. My favorite colors in this line are the neutrals, but for those of you who like brighter and bolder shades, they have those too!

Weave in all ends.
