Suggested Fabrics

This pattern is suitable for many cozy stretch fleece fabrics and we have sized the pattern for low-moderate stretch, approximately 10-30%, and a 1 cm seam allowance.  When working with a higher stretch option (such as our Polartec Windpro Stretch and Power Stretch Fleeces), you may wish to size-down by one size. The good news is that if they are a bit too large, it’s very easy to make them smaller simply by re-sewing the seams where the sides attach to the sole.  This pattern is a great way to use up some scraps from other projects!  For the largest size you will need two pieces of fleece 17 inches long x 17 inches wide, two strips of non-slip gripping fabric about 6" x 2" each, as well as 50" of FOE (fold over elastic). 

If you have all the required bits, yeah!  If not, you can purchase a No-Slip Slipper Pack which makes minimum 2 pair, or choose from one of the recommended fabrics below. 

Tip:  If your feet get hot and you wish to add a moisture-wicking layer to the sole, we recommend layering either Polartec Power Dry or Power Grid to the wrong side of the sole piece prior to cutting out the sole piece. This can be done with a temporary adhesive spray. Then just cut out the glued sole pieces and treat them as 1 piece.

Alternatively if you want more warmth, add some Polartec Alpha Direct to the inside of the sole in the same method.

Notions for Finishing

This pattern requires Fold Over Elastic for finishing upper edges. https://discoveryfabrics.com/products/fold-over-elastic-foe  (we recommend ¾” or 1” wide)

If you are using a very stretchy fabric and wish to use a stretch thread, we recommend Seraflex Thread.
