How to Crochet Fun Fashion Flip-Flop Sandals

Stores carry a wide variety of flip-flops with beads, sequins and different fabrics. If you want something unique, crochet fashion flip-flop sandals.

Things You'll Need

• Plain flip-flops
• Crochet hook
• Scissors
• Yarn

Instructions

1. Cover the straps that go across the top of your foot with the novelty yarn. Start at one end by tying the yarn securely around the strap. Use a dot of clear drying glue to hold it in place.

2. Begin crocheting by pushing your crochet hook under the strap and catching the yarn from the top side. Pull the yarn under the strap and catch the yarn from the top again. Pull the loop through the first loop of yarn. You are making a single crochet with the yarn around the strap of the flip-flop sandal.

3. Continue with the single crochet method all the way across the strap of the flip-flop. Do not cover the piece that goes between the toes, as this may make it too wide for comfort. Knot the yarn at the end, secure with glue, and tuck the trailing end back into the stitching. Repeat these steps with the other flip-flop sandal.

4. Check that the eyelashes or fringe of the yarn is displayed properly. Use a small brush or your fingers to gently pull the fringe out and around the flip-flop strap.

Tips & Warnings

• Try fancy yarns like mohair, spangles and eyelash yarn.
