Nelle Slippers Crochet Pattern

These slippers are pretty and elegant.   I know sometimes working with Drops' patterns is difficult, because they do not state the weight of their yarn required.  All of their yarns have names and a yarn group letter, so if you don't have access to their yarns, this can be difficult.  To get a better idea, go to their comparison chart , here they give you the gauge information, you can play around with your own yarn and hooks until you get the tension correct!
