Construction

These crochet socks are simply and uniquely constructed. They're worked flat in rows for the body stitch and cuff ribbing. After seaming, the toe and heel are crocheted in the round. This simple and enjoyable process results in cozy, comfortable socks that will keep your feet warm all season long.

Make a whole Snowy Wheat set as a gift by adding a coordinating Snowy Wheat Hat or Twisted Wheat Earwarmer, with a Snowy Wheat Ornament as a gift tag!

Special Stitches


Puff Stitch: Yarn over and insert your hook into the stitch/space. Yarn over again and pull up a long loop. Yarn over and insert your hook into the same stitch/space. Yarn over again and pull up a long loop (5 loops on the hook). Yarn over and pull through the first 4 loops, yarn over and pull through remaining loops.

Invisible sc2tog: Insert your hook into the front loop of the first st, and then insert into the front loop of the second st (3 loops on the hook). Yarn over and pull through both front loops (2 loops on the hook), yarn over and pull through the remaining loops on the hook.

Written Crochet Pattern Instructions

Front Body of Sock

Row 1 (WS):

Ch 65 (67, 69, 71) (73, 75), sc in the second ch from the hook and across. | 64 (66, 68, 70) (72, 74) sts

Row 2 (RS):

Ch 1 (turning ch does not count as a st throughout), blo sc in each st across, turn.

Row 3:

Ch 1, blo sc 5, [skip the next st, sc in next, work a puff st into the skipped st] work until the last st, blo sc in the last st, turn.

Row 4:

Ch 1, blo sc 1, [skip the next st, sc in next, work a puff st into the skipped st] work until the last 5 sts, blo sc in the last 5 sts, turn.

Rows 5-6:

Ch 1, blo sc in each st across, turn.

Rows 7-20:

Repeat Rows 3-6, ending on a Row 4.

Tip on Adjusting for the Width of the Slipper Sock: At this point, we should have crocheted about half the circumference of our foot (measurement C). We want a negative ease of about ½ to 1 inch for the total circumference. If more or fewer rows are needed, adjust accordingly in multiples of 4 rows

Leg Section

Rows 1-2:

Ch 1, blo sc in 48 st across, turn. | 48 sts

Please note, we will not be working all the sts in the row, we will turn and leave some sts unworked.

Rows 5-20:

Repeat Rows 1-4.

Tip on Adjusting for the Width of the Slipper Sock for the Leg Portion: This is where we can get the fit just right for our leg, and we went to make sure we are adjusting for the largest part of our leg. To check the fit, wrap the leg fabric section around your leg to see if more or fewer rows are needed, then adjust accordingly in multiples of 4 rows.

Seaming: Fold the fabric together with the WS facing out. Working through the current row and the first row, sl st each st together across. Fasten off.

Sizing Tips

This design is easily customized to fit all legs. To check the fit of the Sock Leg, wrap your crocheted Leg Section around the widest part of your leg to see if more or fewer rows are needed. You can customize the foot section in the same way, too!

Finishing

Weave in any remaining ends. Block to measurement, and enjoy cozy, warm toes all season long! 

The Snowdrift Slipper Socks make the perfect gift—because who wouldn’t love the cozy luxury of warm toes? Whether you’re treating yourself or someone special, these socks are sure to spread winter cheer. To keep them looking and feeling their best, handwash them in cool water and lay them flat to dry. And if you’re looking for no-skid options, try adding a bit of fabric paint or silicone dots to the soles for extra grip. With these tips, your slipper socks will stay comfy, cozy, and ready for endless winter snuggles! If you loved making these slipper socks, you’ll also love the Quick & Bulky Socks and, for more of a challenge, the Vine Colorwork Socks!

Cheers, and happy crocheting!
