Crocheting the Sole (Base)
- Begin by creating an elliptical base (sole) with a series of foundation chains.
- Follow the increase rounds to shape the toe and heel.
Crocheting the Upper Part (Body)
- Work the first round of the body using back loop only or a similar technique to create a defined ridge.
- Continue working in rounds using single or half-double crochet to build the height of the shoe.
- For shaping the toe, perform decreases at the front to narrow the opening.
Adding the Fluffy Trim (White Yarn)
- Attach the fluffy yarn to the top opening.
- Crochet a few rows of simple stitches or a textured stitch like a slip stitch or puff stitch to create a plush look.
Finishing the Edging
- Use Front Post and Back Post stitches alternately around the top opening to create a ribbed texture.
- Finalize by joining the last round with a slip stitch, chain one, and cut the yarn.
- Weave in any loose ends into the inside of the stitches to secure them.
