Turn flat knitted fabric into soft and spongy slippers! This fanciful pair features deeply textured diagonal “scales“ and a pebbly pointed cuff that are perfectly suited for self-striping yarn. Sized from child through adult, the simple pattern is worked entirely in rows without the need for DPNs.
The slippers begin at the bottom with slight shaping for the toe and heel. Then it’s essentially straight knitting from that point forward. After sewing a single seam, they’re ready to wear.
