CHUNKY KNIT SLIPPERS for Beginners (Step-by-Step Tutorial)

I’m this video I’ll show you how to knit these super cozy slippers from beginning to end. We’ll cover how to create a heel, seaming the slipper together, creating a crochet edge and how to attach an optional leather sole!

Because these slippers are knit in chunky yarn, they knit up really quickly. They're perfect for gifting this holiday season!

These slippers are suitable for adventurous beginner knitters who are comfortable casting on and knitting.

The slippers come in three sizes: child, adult small and adult large.

Please note: The price of the PDF pattern will fluctuate with time to keep up with inflation and the average price of a cup of coffee.

I can just about knit a scarf in garter stitch, but this video has given me the confidence to try something harder! This tutorial is crystal clear and looks so easy to follow, and I can't wait to have cosy toes. I just have to decide which colour.

[annafranklin]

New content from you is the greatest gift of all!
Quality is impeccable and your teaching skills are unmatched. Thank you for your time and effort!

[d_inkz]

I've only just started to learn how to knit, so have watched an awful lot of tutorials recently, and I am SO happy to have found your channel. There is just something special about the way you teach and demonstrate that just makes things 'click'. You have ended so many of my frustrations. Thank you!

[kwwa]

You are the consummate communicator who can teach well. Many thanks.

[dkirk]

Thank you so much. I love this project due to your clear instructions. I made these slippers in super chunky yarn with 15 mm needles and crochet hook and adjusted your pattern a smidge to allow for this. I continued crocheting along the opening and turned the slippers into boots. So happy.

[chantalleclaire]

Thank you for a great tutorial. You have given me the confidence to try something new.

Devina, Your videos are THE BEST. Just started knitting and could t have done it without your tutorials and trust me I’ve checked out dozens…..and dozens. I’ve so far made a hat and scarf from your walk through tutorials and they turned out amazing! Thank you for such great quality videos, look forward to many more. Could you do one for socks or do you have a tutorial recommendation? ☺️

[mikk]

Wow this is going to save my so much on Christmas presents this year

[chaoco]

Thank you so much for making this pattern available and for make such a clear, easy to follow video. I've been wanting to knit this kind of slipper for a long time. I will look forward to more projects from you in the future!

[livingbeyondvision]

Devina, I am SO excited to see this video. I made your slouchy hat and get compliments everytime I wear it. I just made 2 pair of slipper socks (long version) for my granddaughter and her husband. NOW my two 7 year old granddaughters want a pair, but one of them wants the footsie version like this one. Thank you so much for posting. LOVE your tutorials! 😍

[KittenBowl]

Love this Devina, especially attaching the leather sole at the end so we don’t fall and slip on hardwood floor! 🙂 And very nice tutorial on seaming and which stitch to pick up for invisible effect!! I’m currently making your fingerless mittens right now and I’ll be making this next! 🥰 Thanks for sharing! 💜

[madiantin]

What a great video! It makes the whole process non-overwhelming and really doable. Thank you!

[justamags]

I just finished these tonight for my sister in law for Christmas! I only knew how to basic knit, and just two weeks ago taught myself how to purl! Your clear instructions made this novice confident, and they turned out so cute! Thank you! You're an amazing teacher!

[sharonstakofsky-davis]

Davina, i tried to learn to knit from a friend and she was not the best teacher. Your videos were so clear and perfect I learned everything I needed to know from you. I’m going to try these slippers!!!

[jacquelinesharp]

As a crocheter, I have to say those are nice crochet stitches for a non crocheter. Thank you for such an excellent tutorial as well as the written pattern so we can improve our pattern reading skills. I will be casting these on ASAP.

[lucymartin]

Wow! You made it look so easy an fun! I haven't knitted anything past a basic stitch before! I can't wait to try this! I may watch it again to make sure I got the sizes right! I got one of those hooks, while going through my mom's things after she past in 2020. The hook actually belonged to my grandmother! I am so excited to learn how to use it! An to knit from a hook she once used! Thank you for the video!

[heatherlight]

Thank you davina 💙
