I love slipper socks, in fact I wear them most of the winter. Crochet is perfect for slipper socks, hands down. These slipper socks are not just oversized socks worked in worsted weight yarn, instead they are worsted weight socks sized to fit the length of your foot, while maintaining the all over loose fit we search for with slipper socks. Keep in mind these are meant to be loose fitting, so a gauge looser than that of the one given will result in a very large stocking.

These socks are worked from the cuff down with a front and back post double crochet cuff, an all over dc stitch pattern, heel flap, and a simple three-point toe.
