Show up in a pair of these easy to make Patriotic Crocheted Flip Flops and you’ll be the talk of the party!Easy Patriotic Crocheted Flip Flops Free Pattern at Sparkles of Sunshine.I came up with this idea when I was going through my yarn stash after finishing up another crochet flip flop project. I was putting yarn away when I remembered I had some extra flip flops lying around that I had bought on clearance last year. When I pulled them out and saw that the flip flops were red and blue, this project was a no-brainer. I grabbed the flip flops, yarn and a crochet hook and got busy creating these Patriotic Crocheted Flips Flops, just in time for the upcoming July 4th holiday!Easy Patriotic Crocheted Flip Flops Free Pattern at Sparkles of Sunshine.Here’s the easy pattern:

Crochet Hook:  K (6.5 mm)

Yarn: Red, White and Blue in Worsted Weight. I used Red Heart Super Saver for these flip flops.

Place the yarn across the top of flip flop strap, insert hook under strap and yarn over, creating 2 loops on hook. Insert hook over the strap, yarn over, then pull the strands through both loops to create a single crochet around the strap. Continue working around the flip flop until the entire strap is covered.
