I made one sole only to find it didn't fit the whole foot, made another one is the larger size, and it's still too small.

This is a great pattern. The only problem was, I didn't have any batting and didn't want to invest in any because I'd have no use for the remaining batting. What I did was this; I bought Dr Scholls foam insoles and used them instead. The result was fabulous. I made a pair for my sister in pink & white, and a pair for my brother-in-law in black & white. I think the in-soles work even better than batting, and are easier to insert, and will last longer. Plus...when the slipper wears out, they have insoles to use in their shoes! Am I clever or what?

These instructions are very unclear. I'd crochet more if I could understand the instructions. Using abbreviations, jargon and leaving out steps MIGHT be excused back in the day of paper publishing and wanting to save money by not printing so many characters, but on the internet, this is a none-issue. I can't tell you the number of unfinished or weird looking mis-shapen projects I have laying around. I also have sleeves, jacket backs and parts of other articles that for the life of me I couldn't figure out. I'd invent my own system of construction and then realize that's what the instructions were trying to say, but in 10 or less words. Just venting. Raganthor

I am confused about the assembly of the sole section. ''"Place quilt batting on WS of 1 sole. With WS of 2 soles facing each other and quilt batting between, join MC with sl st through all thicknesses at any st"... So at some point do you then turn it right side out? Or should it be RS instead of WS? I am new to crochet, so sorry if this is a stupid question. THANKS

no idea if anyone answered, but you are putting the wrong sides together with batting between and sewing. the right sides are outward when you put them like this. (it is not like sewing a dress where right sides are together then sewed and turned). this is sewed together with it in correct position to be part of the slipper. hope this helps

This is a great pattern, however, I think it can get confusing with the construction steps. Therefore, there should be more pictures showing these details. Just a thought....

"working on the rem loop" when you start the foundation row you only work in one side of the chain or the V form, so now you sl st to the remaining loop of the foundation row. The other side of the foundation row or chain or V. How ever you name it. Hope this helps.

To Crafter 4318397 After you have completed the first side of your initial chain, and made the 5 dc in the last chain, you need to work up the other side of the beginning chain. The remaining loop refers to the other side of the chain from which you made the first row. You are working an oval shape here, not going back and forth in rows. Hope this helps!

On instructions for the UPPER it starts out with 1st row, then goes to 3rd row, no mention of 2nd row.
