Designed for women’s shoe sizes 5/6, 7/8, and 9/10, this pattern is both versatile and beginner-friendly. It uses 5-weight yarn and is lined with soft chenille or velvet yarn across the top for extra warmth and a luxurious feel.
You’ll love how quickly these slippers work up. And how wonderfully they cradle your feet. The vivid colors give a cozy celestial feel, perfect for gifting or indulging in a bit of self-care.
For the soles, you have two easy and affordable options. Use foam interfacing for a soft indoor finish, or repurpose the base from inexpensive flip-flops or slippers for a more durable option.
Either way, the result is a sturdy and stylish slipper that you’ll reach for again and again. Add a bit of non-slip material to the bottom if you plan to wear them on hardwood floors.
Crocheting your own pair of Northern Lights Slippers is a wonderful way to bring a handmade glow to cold nights. Whether you’re making them for yourself or as a thoughtful gift, this pattern is a great way to blend comfort, creativity, and a little winter magic into your crochet projects.
