Lion Brand^® Lion^® Suede - Microspun

GAUGE:

13 sts + 14 rows = 4 in. [10 cm] in sc with A. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you less stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

STITCH EXPLANATION:

FPSC (front post single crochet) Insert hook from front to back then to front, going around the sc post, draw up a loop, yo and draw through 2 loops on hook. Skip st behind the FPSC.

sc2tog (sc dec) Insert hook into st and draw up a loop. Insert hook into next st and draw up a loop. Yarn over, draw through all 3 loops on hook.

Note: When working sc in joined rounds, always sk the sl st at beg of rnd, sc in the next actual sc. Make the final sc of each round in the last sc, the one with the sl st join.

Crochet Oxford Slippers Reviewed by LeeAnn Rafferty on 2008-05-20
Nice pattern but found it didn't stay on my foot well with the back as low as it was so I made a taller side and back and another closing tab on top now they're terrific!
