Shoe 2
***You need to
decide which side of the scarf to attach the white fuzzy yarn for the cuff of
Shoe 2. The toe of the shoe will point to whichever side you attach it. If
you want the “tip-toe” effect as shown in the main picture where both shoes
point in the same direction, you would attach it to the same side as you
fastened off in Row 46[36]. If you made your scarf longer or shorter than
46[36] rows, it depends on if you have an even number or an odd number of rows.
If you have an even number, you would attach it to the same side as you
fastened off in your last row, but if you have an odd number of rows, it would
be on the opposite side as you fastened off in your last row.
