UPDATED DALLAS COWBOYS SLIPPERS



I created a pair of Dallas Cowboys Slippers using the pattern for the 4th size of the Slippers and an H crochet hook to get a Men's Size 10.  The NIKE Swoosh is Navy Blue on these slippers.

I used 18 count Aida cross stitch cloth to make the Dallas Cowboys Logo.  I then attached the logos to the INSTEP before finishing off the slippers.

This is an updated version of the original Dallas Cowboys Slippers that I post previously.

KANSAS CITY CHIEFS SLIPPERS

I used 18 count Aida cross stitch cloth to make the Kansas City Chiefs Logo.  I then attached the logos to the INSTEP before finishing off the slippers.

BEANIE HAT (DC)


This is a pattern for a beanie using double crochet to make it.  The numbers given in each row is the number of stitches.

MATERIALS
Worsted weight yarn
H crochet hook
Tapestry needle

HAT
1.  15                    7.  61
2.  28                    8.  62
3.  38                    9.  62
4.  45                    10.  63

Once you complete Round 12, each round from here on out will have 65 stitches in them.  The number of Rounds will be determined by how long you want the hat to be.  I typically put enough rounds to cover the ears.
