🌈 Easy Crochet Rainbow Slippers

Skill level

Beginner–Easy

Size

Women’s EU 38–39 (US 7–8)
(I’ll tell you how to resize at the end.)

Yarn + hook

  • Bulky / super bulky yarn (or 2 strands of DK held together) for a fast, chunky look

  • Hook 5.5–6.5 mm

  • Yarn needle, scissors

  • Optional: non-slip dots or suede/felt sole

Stitches (US terms)

  • ch = chain

  • sc = single crochet

  • hdc = half double crochet

  • sl st = slip stitch

  • inc = 2 stitches in the same stitch




SOLE (make 2)

We crochet an oval, then build up.

Round 1

Ch 19.
In 2nd ch from hook: 3 sc (this makes the first curve).
Sc in next 16 chains.
In last ch: 5 sc (other curve).
Now work on the other side of the chain: sc in next 16 stitches.
In last stitch: 2 sc.
Join with sl st.

Round 2

Ch 1.
In the 3-sc curve: inc in each of the next 3 sts.
Sc across the straight side until you reach the 5-sc curve.
In the 5-sc curve: inc in each of the next 5 sts.
Sc across the other straight side.
At the final small curve: inc in the last 2 sts.
Join.

Round 3

Ch 1.
In each curve area, do: (sc, inc), repeating around the curves.
Sc on straight parts.
Join.

✅ You should now have a sole about 24–25 cm long.

SIDE WALL (build the “cup”)

Round 4 (IMPORTANT)

Ch 1. Sc in BLO (back loop only) all the way around.
Join.

Round 5

Ch 1. Sc all around. Join.

TOE (closed-toe section)

Find the center front of the slipper (toe). Place a marker there.

Round 6

Start at the side seam. Sc until you reach the toe center zone.
Now toe shaping: over the next ~12 stitches do:

  • (hdc2tog) Repeated to close the toe nicely
    Then sc the rest of the round. Join.

Round 7

Repeat Round 6 but make the toe zone slightly smaller (about 10 stitches).
Use hdc2tog across that zone again. Join.

Round 8

Repeat again (toe zone 8 stitches). Join.

✅ Toe should now look closed and snug.

TOP STRIPE BAND (for the “rainbow” look)




Now switch colors every 1–2 rounds.

Rounds 9–12 (color stripes)

Work hdc all around for a thicker, softer look.
Change color at the end of each round:

  • Lavender

  • Baby blue

  • Mint

  • Soft yellow

  • Peach

  • Pink

(Do 1 round per color, or 2 rounds per color if you want thicker stripes.)

FINISH EDGE

Final round

Ch 1. Sc all around (or crab stitch for a pro look).
Fasten off, weave in ends.

Make the second slipper

Repeat everything exactly.

📏 Easy resizing

  • Bigger size: start chain +2 (so ch 21), and add one more sole round if needed.

  • Smaller size: start chain -2 (so ch 17).

  • Always aim for sole length = your foot length (cm) minus ~0.5 cm (it stretches).
