2021 Holiday Freebies :: Shiver Me Slipper Socks

December 1, 2021

Happy Holidays, Pirate Friends!  We are excitedly back for another year and another round of holiday freebies to share with you!  Over the years, we’ve compiled different tutorials and patterns that we think would make *perfect* gifts for your friends and family. Curious about what we’ve already released in the way of holiday freebies? Head right here to see all of them: Holiday Freebies Roundup.

Today, we are bringing you the: Shiver Me Slipper Socks!

My feet are ALWAYS cold in the winter. And big, fluffy slipper socks are pretty much my favorite thing ever to help combat the cold. It’s been on my list to make this pattern for a couple of years now and I’m super excited to be officially bringing them to y’all!

Supplies Needed:

  • Shiver Me Slipper Socks pattern pieces
  • less than 1/2 Yard each, Lining + Main Fleece Fabric

TUTORIAL

  • Fold one of the main Sock pieces in half, with right sides together. Using 1/2″ seam allowance, stitch along the curve.
  • Open the sock up to create a straight line with the seam you just created in the center of that line.
  • With right sides facing down, place the toe piece on top, matching along that straight edge. Sew using 1/2″ seam allowance.
  • Mark toe front and heel back with pins/clips.
  • With right sides facing each other, place the sole piece on top, aligning the front and back markings.
  • Pin/clip pieces together, carefully easing the curves into one another. Using 1/2″ seam allowance, sew around entire outer edge.
  • Repeat with lining fabric.
  • Flip the main boot right sides out, keeping the lining piece with wrong sides facing outward, then stuff the main boot inside of the lining.
  • This will allow them to have right sides of the fabric facing each other.
  • Align the raw edges along the top. Sew, using 1/2″ seam allowance, while keeping a 3-4″ opening for turning.
  • Turn fabric right sides out through the opening you left.
  • Push the lining fabric into the main fabric.
  • Either by using a blind stitch in the opening, or top stitching around the entire upper edge, sew the opening shut.
  • Complete all steps for second slipper. You’re finished!

I left enough height on these slippers so you can wear them folded, for a cute cuffed look, or unfolded for a taller sock. Your choice! I’m excited to see what you prefer!


In case you consider yourself a more “visual learner” here’s a video tutorial that walks you through the entire tutorial, start-to-finish.

Check out what our fabulous testers were able to create with this very same tutorial!

I la-la-love when you share your photos with me!  Head over to the Patterns for Pirates Facebook Group and show us what you’ve made!

Happy Holidays, Pirates!

    Some of these don’t look lined…is it possible to make these with a super soft/fluffy fabric and leave them unlined?

      All of our testers make the pattern as it’s written, so they are all lined. But if you wanted to just do a single layer, go for it. There will be exposed seams on the inside and you’ll want to hem the top. But they’re your slippers so you get to make them how you like. 🙂

    Just checking – as I am planning to make these for 2022. And am getting a head start. The sizing, is this men’s shoe sizes?

      It’s a blend, and closer to standard US women’s shoe sizing. It’s best to use the foot measurement lengths, for the most accurate fit. 😉

    Thank you so much for this pattern. The video is so awesome and I appreciate you including it for us visual learners. I’ve been looking for a pattern like this for a while and yours called out ‘pick me!’ I’m glad I did! I cannot wait to make these for the holidays! My best to you!

    Thank you so much for this free pattern. Had to drag husband to quilt shop today and he found some expensive reindeer nature themed fleece, and asked for replacement socks. I’d made fleece socks about 2 years ago which he still wears and they look terrible and never fit correctly. Can’t wait to make to try these out. You are very talented.
