• Flip-Flop Problem Solvers

  I'm back! I'm reviving this blog to shamelessly whore my crochet projects to the inter-webs.  I may do other things, like talk about my geeky interests.  But here, look first upon flip-flops made accessible to the common man:

  
  

  Flip-Flop Toe Protectors

  This pattern is incredibly simple.  All you need to do is crochet a rectangle.  You then wrap this rectangle around the thong and sew it using the tail end of your thread.  And voila! No more sore toes from sharp plastic flip-flops.

   

  Row 1: Chain 8ish, Sc into second chain from the hook.  Sc to end.

   Row 2-7ish: Chain 1, and Sc to the end.

   Fasten off and weave in your original tail.  Use your new tail to sew the piece around your thong. 

  NOTE:  I use “ish” in the pattern because your flip flops may be bigger or smaller than the ones I made this for (which were smalls).  Use these numbers as a basis, and hold up your project to your flip-flop as you go. You may need to add or subtract stitches/rows, but don’t worry; it’s still just a rectangle.
