Easy Foldover Slippers Knitting Pattern
Easy Foldover Slippers Knitting Pattern- the easiest way to knit slippers! Ideal for beginners with no heel or toe shaping.
I’ve received many requests for an adult version of my Easiest Baby Booties knitting pattern and today I’m happy to share with you this Easy Foldover Slippers Knitting Pattern! I did these in 2 sizes: women’s S/M and M/L.
These slippers are knit on straight needles using super bulky yarn. The slipper shaping comes from some simple binding off. Then, the pieces are lined up and stitched together.
Techniques you’ll need to know to knit these slippers:
Cast on
Garter Stitch (knit every row)
Bind off

Easy Foldover Slippers Knitting Pattern
[Make 2]
Cast on 46 (50 for M/L) stitches. Work in Garter Stitch for 12 rows.
Bind off 18 (20) stitches at the beginning of the next row. Finish row. Bind off 18 (20) stitches at the beginning of the next row- this leaves you with 10 stitches in the middle.
Garter Stitch remaining stitches for 8 3/4 (9 1/4) inches. Bind off.
How to finish the slippers:
 |
Here is the finished piece. It looks like the letter “T”. The upper part will become the back and side of the bootie. The thinner, bottom part will be the footbed
 |
Take one side of the upper part of the “T” and place it on top of the footbed
 |
Take the other side of the “T” and place it on top of the 2 layers
 |
Using a yarn needle, sew the bootie together at the toe. Sew through all 3 layers
 | ||
Sew the seam at each side. Turn the bootie inside out when finished.

Hi Gina, love these and am going to make your baby version. Could you give me an idea of what sizes the women's are equivalent for the s/m and m/l? thanks.
Hi Gina, not sure if you received my last message-sorry, I forgot to click on "notify me". Could you give me approximate women's sizes for the s/m and m/l? thanks (I'm about to start on the baby booties also)
Hi! The s/m fits a 6/7 and the m/l is a 8/9
Hi! Can you please tell me which wool-ease you used for the adult booties? Was it the original medium worsted, chunky, or thick and quick? The yarn in your pictures looks thicker than the medium worsted I used for the baby version. Thanks for your time!
Hi- I used this yarn: http://www.michaels.com/wool-ease-thick-and-quick-yarn/M10111093.html
Is the yarn woolease thick and quick?
Yes, it is.
I'm a bit confused. In the baby pattern, as you go up in size, the amount of rows goes up. But for the adult size, as the cast on amount goes up, the rows you knit does not. Is this correct?
Is there a toddler size pattern? Size 3/4?
Yes, here it is: http://www.gina-michele.com/2016/11/easiest-toddler-slippers-ever-knitting.html
I don't know if I misread but what size needles do you use for the baby booties.
Size US 10 1/2 ☺
Hi. Could you tell me the size of needles and yarn for this pattern for a ladies size as Amazon has an ad on top of the needle size and yarn size and I can't seem to remove it thank you
Sorry about that! I fixed it. Size 10 1/2 straight needles
Sorry about that! I fixed it. Size 10 1/2 straight needles
Hi, Kraftygranni here. I want to enlarge the toddler size foldover slippers to have. a 5.5" foot bed. I tried adding stitches but obviously didn't use the right combinations. Could you help me please?
The child wears a toddler size seven shoe. Thanks for your help….love your patterns!
My guy wears a toddler size 7 shoes too. I'm working on the updated pattern right now. I'll have a pattern posted (with the larger sizes) by the end of next week. Thanks for reading =)
Hi Michele, were you able to write the pattern for the toddler size slippers? Will I find it on this page along with the baby size pattern? Thanks again for your help.

Thank you, thank you sooo much! I'll be back for more of your patterns.
I'm knitting these slippers for my women friends/relations for Christmas. Can you provide me with a pattern for men sizes?
I love this pattern, but need to make some for the men in my family! Can you tell me how many stitches for a men's M/L size? Thank you so much.
I'm currently working on the men's pattern and I'll have it posted on either Monday or Tuesday =)
Thanks – I'll be on the lookout for it!
