Warm homemade crocheted slippers (with a description of the work)

Such cozy slippers can be made from the remnants of yarn, combining threads of different colors into one for the fortress. Melange can be strengthened if we add another additional thread of strong synthetic material. This model has only two small drawbacks: they slip on the floor and wear out quickly. Some masters strengthen the sole with artificial leather, but we will describe only the process of how to make slippers knitted on two spokes themselves. In preparation for work includes the choice of spokes - this should be straight spokes number 8 or a close size. Do not forget to prepare a thick needle, which you will sew details of slippers. Measure the foot with centimeter tape - this figure will come in handy. Also remember that knitted fabrics tend to stretch, so the length of knitting can be reduced by about 2-3 cm.

Scheme of knitted slippers:

• Type on the spokes 29 loops.
• The following rows should be knitted as follows: row one - remove the loop, 8 loops of the purlins, 1 remove with the cuff, 9 loops of the purlins, 1 remove with the crochet, 9 loops of the purlins. The second row is knit, like looking viscous (all purl loops). So continue to alternate these two rows until the canvas is 7 cm shorter than the length of the foot.
• We pass to the loosening of the sock. Row 1: remove the first loop, alternate further: 1 purl loop, one to remove with a cuff - to the end of the row. Row 2: 1 purl loop, remove one loop with cuff. It turns out a volume elastic, which should be continued about 7 cm.
• Open sock loops should be assembled with a gypsy needle and tightened. Fasten the sock knot securely.
• Slippers, knitted on two spokes, after this operation will need to be sewn by a joint in the area of the lift of the foot. You can use the same thread for this as for the fabric, but you can apply a contrasting yarn that will decorate the product. Sew the side of the sock.

Now connect the heel of the heel, folding the back half of it. Sew tightly so that slippers, knitted on two spokes, long worn without repair. In the photo they look a little funny, but when you put them on they will take shape and you will feel a sense of satisfaction from your work. Show your imagination and come up with your own version of the decor of such slippers. For the elderly, usually the edge is made of thread or fur, pompoms or bows will suit women. Children will be happy if their slippers will resemble little animals, or they will be decorated with flowers and ribbons. Men will like the decor of buttons or buckles.
