Step 2: Sew the heel seam

Fold the rectangle in half. Using a yarn needle, sew the two short ends together to create the heel of the slipper.

Step 3: Shape the toe

To close the front of the slipper:

  1. Thread a length of yarn onto your yarn needle.
  2. Weave the yarn in and out along the stitches at the toe end.
  3. Gently pull both ends of the yarn to cinch the toe closed.
  4. Tie a secure knot.

Step 4: Sew the top of the slipper

Using the yarn tail from Step 3, sew the front seam of the slipper about 3 inches from the toe. This gives the slipper its finished shape.

Step 5: Crochet the sunflower motif
