Step-by-Step Instructions

Follow these detailed instructions to create your own pair of Charming Twisted Rose Ballet Slippers:

Creating the Slipper Base

1. Round 1: Start with a magic ring. Chain 3 (this counts as your first double crochet). Work 11 double crochets (dc) into the magic ring. Pull the ring tight to close.
2. Round 2: Work 2 dc in each dc around. You should have a total of 24 dc at the end of this round.
3. Round 3: *1 dc in the next dc, 2 dc in the next dc; repeat from * around. You will have 36 dc at the end of this round.
4. Round 4: *1 dc in the next 2 dc, 2 dc in the next dc; repeat from * around. You will have 48 dc at the end of this round.
5. Round 5: Work even in dc for 5 rounds. This means you will simply work 1 dc in each dc around for 5 rounds without increasing.

Shaping the Slipper

6. Round 6: *1 dc in the next 2 dc, dc2tog (double crochet two together); repeat from * around. You will have 36 dc at the end of this round.
7. Round 7: Work even for 2 rounds. Just work 1 dc in each dc around for 2 rounds.
8. Round 8: *1 dc in the next dc, dc2tog; repeat from * around. You will have 24 dc at the end of this round.
9. Round 9: Work even for 1 round. Work 1 dc in each dc around.
10. Round 10: *dc2tog; repeat from * around. You will have 12 dc at the end of this round.

Finishing the Slipper

11. Round 11: Fasten off, leaving a long tail for sewing. Use this tail to sew the opening of the slipper closed and weave in any loose ends.

Creating the Twisted Rose

1. Chain 30.
2. Turn your work and work 1 single crochet (sc) in each chain back to the beginning.
3. Roll the chain into a rose shape and sew it onto the top of the slipper.
4. Repeat the process to create a second rose for the other slipper.
