Crochet Ballet Slippers Free Pattern

I've been wanting to make a pair of crocheted slippers for a while now, and I finally got the chance to sit down and design a pair. I hope you enjoy this free Ballet Slippers crochet pattern!

For this pattern we use around 100 – 120 yards of worsted weight/size 4/Aran yarn and a D/3.25mm hook. These ballet slippers work up quickly so grab your hook and let's get started!

Ballet Slippers Crochet Pattern

Materials:

Worsted weight/size 4/Aran yarn
-approx. 100 – 120 yards for women's US size 7 – 10 (Big Twist "Dark Denim" pictured)
Crochet hook in size D/3.25mm

I have not added any non-slip to the bottom of my slippers yet, but Gemma left a comment in the Heart Hook Home Crochet Community recommending Sock Stop. Thanks, Gemma!

Pattern Notes:

Place first stitch of each row in the same stitch as your chain.
Ch-2 at beginning of round does NOT count as a stitch.
Pattern written in US terms.
Here's a tutorial for the Magic circle. You could also Chain-4, join to first chain to form a circle.
