Knitted slipper pattern.

Img_4873 I've been asked for the pattern for these knitted slippers............ so here goes: You'll need a chunky wool, (I used Sirdar 'Click-chunky with wool'). 2 x 50g balls. 5.5mm,(no.5), needles. Abbreviations: K=knit, p=purl, st.(s)=stitches(es), sl.-slip, tog=together, t.b.l=through back of loop. Cast on 34 stitches. 1st row: sl.1, k10, p1, k10, p1, k11. 2nd row: sl.1, k33. Repeat row 1 & 2, 23 more times. (Mark the beginning of of the last row with a stitch marker). 49th row: sl.1, k2 tog., knit to last 3 sts., k2 tog. t.b.l., k1. Knit 5 rows. Repeat last 6 rows once more. 61st row: same as 49th row. Knit 4 rows. Next row: sl.1, (k2 tog.) to last st., k1. Next row: sl.1, (k2 tog.) to end. Next row: (k2 tog.) to end. Break off yarn, thread through remaining stitches and fasten off. Join the seam from this end up to marker. Join back seam. Make the second slipper the same. Pompoms make a nice finishing touch............
