Easy Peasy Crochet Child Slippers

These easy peasy crochet child slippers are so easy to make!

Just measure your child’s foot, pick the size that is closest to that measurements (remember they will stretch a little so I went half an inch shorter than my son’s actual measurement) and begin!

How to make your slippers not slip:

I get this question a lot and have a couple solutions I think work really well:

1. Puff paint. Squirt little dots or lines of puff paint on the bottoms. Turn them upside down and let them dry overnight before use.

 

 2. Clear plasti dip spray. This is my preferred method as it works really well and just sprays on. Be sure to do this outdoors.

Spray the bottoms and let dry overnight before use.
