Knitted Slippers - Bedroom Slippers

-
Knitted slippers pattern: The honeycomb stitch, knitted in two colours gives
a pretty effect, and is quite easy to work.
Knitted Slippers Materials:- 2 to 3 ozs. white and 1 oz. coloured Beehive Fleecy. A pair of
slipper soles the required size. Two no.9 Celluloid Knitting Needles.
With the white wool cast on 22 stitches for a woman's size, or 17 stitches
for a child's.
1st row - Knit plain.
At the commencement of each following row, after turning, always slip the
first stitch.
2nd row - Slip 2 (taking care not to turn the stitches), joining up the coloured
wool *K.3 coloured, slip 2 white, repeat from * until only 2 stitches remain,
leaving these unknitted, turn.
3rd row - *P.3 coloured, slip 2 white, repeat from * until only 2 stitches
remain, leaving these unknitted, turn.
4th row - The same as the 2nd row.
5th row - The same as the 3rd row but, when the last two stitches are reached,
put them on the right-hand needle without knitting them.
6th and 7th rows - With the white wool, knit plain all the stitches.
8th row - purl with the white wool.
9th row - Knit plain with the white wool. Repeat the last eight rows until
the required length is worked. At the last repetition, instead of knitting the
last row, cast off.
Join up the shoe, gusset fashion, on the wrong side ie. sew the cast-off row
along the side of the knitting for seven ridges. The corner makes the centre
of the toe. The join should come at the right-hand in one shoe at the left in
the other. Sew the slipper to the sole.
THE ANKLE FLAP of the KNITTED SLIPPERS
Casting on 12 stitches with the white wool, work in plain knitting a sufficient
length to fit round the ankle. Cast off.
Sew the flap to the ankle. Thread ribbon through the holes (made by the pattern)
along the top of the shoe and finish with rosettes at the front.
