Spaaaah comfortable.
Now in Men's sizes!
This pattern has been fully tested by a wonderful group of Ravelry testers.
Working a sequence of front loop only and back loop only makes for a unique shaping. Yarn held double, large hook size and SC's throughout, this works up SUPER fast! These are soft and squooshy and would make a wonderful gift. Very easy, I would call this a easy-intermediate pattern.

4. Rep step 3 for 14(14,15,16) more rounds. You should have 15(15,16,17) ridges on bottom of foot. (do not count the last row you worked, just the visible ridges in previous rows.
At this point you should try it on, the ridges are at the bottom of the foot. Your slipper foot should be of length to fit about like this (pictures below) and should be about 1" (ish) from the crook of your foot/ankle. *You can always add one more row or pull out one more row to get the right foot length, just make sure to count your ridges to make the second one the same way.
5. 19(20,21,21) sc, turn.

Grab loop and pull it through the opposite side, ch1. Please note that there will be a gap/hole created where the two sides of the heel come together - this is correct, you will stitch that closed later.
