I like knit socks and slippers. In this slippers I use double knitting wool (used two strands at once) - or any thick yarn that will give the required gauge.
Knitting needles n 9.
How to knit slippers
CO 32 sts.
1st Row - K (right side= RS)
2nd Row - K10, P1, K10, P1, K10 (wrong side= WS)
Repeat these two rows until piece measures 6 inches.
On WS - P11, K10, P11
On RS - K
Repeat these two rows for 3 ½ inches.
You should now have a rectangle. Leave about 24 inches of yarn to sew seam and cut. Thread through tapestry needle and slip the stitches with the tapestry needle. Tighten to bring all the stitches together tightly.
Sew the top of the slipper (the 3 ½ inches of stockinette stitch).
Remember to sew from the right side of your work; you get a nicer/neater looking finish that way.
Sew back of slipper.
You are done.
