MATERIALS
Yarn: 2 balls of 4 ply worsted weight yarn in black, two balls of
4 ply worsted weight yarn in blue. You can
use any color combinations that you want.
I bought large balls of yarn so I am not sure how much I used
but I had lots left over.
Needles: 6 mm, either double pointed or circular. I like the circular
needles as I find them easier to work with.
Gauge: 3 sts = 1 inch, 4 rows = 1 inch.
Size: These are men’s shoe size 9. They will be very easy to adjust for smaller and larger
sizes. To keep in pattern, add 4 stitches. This will increase the width just a little over 1 inch. For the
length, to increase 1 inch work 4 more rows, to shorten the length by 1 inch leave off 4 rows.
Abbreviations used:
sts - stitches
K - Knit
P - Purl
sl2 - slip 2 stitches (all stitches are slipped “purl wise”, that is “as if to purl”, but instead of doing the purl, simply move the
stitch from the left needle to the right needle without working it.)

Cut yarn about 15 inches from Knitting needle. Put on a darning needle and remove
the stitches from the knitting needle onto the tail end of yarn. Turn slipper inside out
and pull yarn tight to close up end. Sew to secure. Continue to sew across top of
slipper leaving enough room for foot opening (about 5 inches across the top). Sew up back of slipper.
