If you are looking for some sexy crochet sandals for ladies, you found them. Crochet a pair for your upcoming vacation or to match your summer outfit.

In the process of designing these, I stared at a plain pair of flip-flops for hours, hoping I could come up with an original design. After SEVERAL frogs, it hit me. Extended treble crochets are the answer!

With such tall stitches, I was able to cover a lot of the sandal while still having an airy summer feel. Even while using worsted weight yarn! I knew how to create the stitches, but figuring out the name of all the tall extended treble crochets was the hard part.

I have been crocheting for over 30 yrs & have never heard of a Septuple, Octuple, or Nonuple Treble Crochet before. Don’t worry, these stitches are super easy. Just in case, I provided a full crochet flip-flop YouTube tutorial

Because of the tall stitches and skipped stitches, this 5-row pattern can be completed in no time at all.
