A very satisfying quick and easy pattern for classic slippers to keep you, your friends and family’s feet warm and cozy.

Notes
I have wanted to rewrite this pattern for so long and finally it is exactly what I want it to be! I have incorporated all the feedback I’ve gotten since I published the first version and have among other things added multiple sizes, a guide on how to find the right size for knitting slippers for other people and expansive descriptions for (optional) finishing techniques that will make the slippers neater and stronger.
