Notes

W grew out of the original slippers I knit for her in 2017 so I frogged them and made more with the yarn - luckily I still had leftover of the handspun!

Total handspun usage was 40g, plus about 25g of miscellaneous sock yarns in the “blue with light bits” colour family (held together). Some of the sock yarns were just scraps so not included above.

I didn’t use exactly this pattern - just the basic shapes from it, but worked toe-up and with a few other changes.
Rough recipe:

  • Spiral toe, increased up to 36 stitches

  • 27 rows stockinette

  • Turn to WS and start knitting flat in garter stitch with a mini i-cord edging (knit every stitch on the right side; slip the first 2 and last 2 stitches wyif on the wrong side) Continue for 31 rows i.e. 16 ridges on RS, ending with a WS row

  • A short row bit: (RS) k14, w&t (WS) k12, sl2 (RS) k10, w&t (WS) k8, sl2 (RS) k to end (WS) sl2, k12, w&t (RS) k to end (WS) sl2, k8, w&t (RS) k to end (WS) sl2, k34, sl2
