Knit Your Own Cozy Slipper Using Vita Baby Yarn

You'll Need:

70g of Vita Baby yarn (100% acryl, 400m/100g) knit in two threads.

Knitting needles 2.5 mm.

Instructions

The whole cloth of the slipper is made with garter stitch.

Cast on 38 stitches (18 cm wide) and knit 72 rows.

Make decreases in the widest part or stretch your work, and then your decreases will start at the toes base.

Start making decreases in the 73rd row.

Make decreases after the selvedge stitch and to the finish selvedge stitch, leaving 3 last stitches. This is done for more convenient sewing at the end of your work.

Make decreases in every right side row, i.e., odd row.

The Scheme of Decrease

Slip the selvedge stitch, make decrease with a left decline: slip the 2nd stitch (catching it from left to right, as if you want to knit it), 1 knit stitch, make broaching with the 2nd stitch under the 3rd knit stitch.

Then knit to the end of the row, leaving 3 stitches.

Make decrease with a right decline: knit 2 stitches together through the front loop, and make the selvedge stitch as "Granny" purl.

Make the wrong side row without decreases with knit stitches.

You can use your variant of decreases; the most important thing is that there should be a decrease with a left decline at the beginning of the row and with a right decline at the end of the row. You should get a "house" shape.

Make decreases until there are 3 stitches left on the needles. Then, bind off the stitches in the wrong side row and cut the yarn.

Now sew the first side of the "house," connecting the beginning of decreases with the last bound stitches, then sew the second side.

If your slipper is too open at the front part, you can sew several cm in the center.

Then, sew the heel. Fold the slipper in half at the very beginning of your knitting and sew from top to bottom.
