Free Knitted Slipper Pattern

Free Knitted Slipper Pattern - Worked in plain knitting except for the little toe-piece, which is in small basket-pattern, these slippers are quickly made and delightfully soft for baby's wear.

Free knitted slipper pattern Materials: -

• 1 oz. Beehive Andalusian Wool.
• Two no.14 steel knitting needles.
• Half yard narrow ribbon.
• Lustre thread.

Cast on 24 stitches.

Knitting plain, increase once at each end of every 2nd row until there are 40 stitches. Then decrease once at every end of every 2nd row until only 24 stitches remain. This piece is for the sole. At the end of the last row cast on 8 stitches for the heel.

Continuing on these 32 stitches knit plain, keeping the heel edge straight and increasing once at the other edge in every 2nd row (for the toe), until 40 stitches are on the needle.

In the next row cast off 22 stitches at the heel. On the remaining 18 stitches work the pattern for the toe as follows:-

1st row - *K.3, P.3 repeat from * to the end of the row.
2nd and 3rd row - like the first row.
4th, 5th and 6th row - *P.3, K.3, repeat from * to the end of the row. Repeat these six rows twice.

Then at the heel edge cast on 22 stitches.

Continue in plain knitting, keeping the heel edge straight and decreasing once at the toe edge in every 2nd row until only 32 stitches remain. Cast off.

Sew together the 2 straight edges of the heel and sew together the edges round the sole easing in the pattern at the toe of this free knitted slipper pattern.

For the straps, knit up 20 stitches at the heel (10 at each side of the joining). Cast on 16 stitches after the knitted up stitches, knit back and cast on 16 stitches at the other end.

Knit 2 rows plain for this free knitted slipper pattern.

3rd row - K.2, cast off 3, knit to the last 5 stitches, cast off 3, K.2.

4th row - Knit plain, casting on 3 stitches over each of the 3 cast-off stitches of the previous row. Knit 2 rows plain. Cast off.

With the lustre thread work in chain or, feather stitch round the straps and opening. Thread ribbon through the holes in the strap.
