Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Cast On

Cast on 36–40 stitches (adjust based on foot size).

Small: 36 stitches
Medium: 38 stitches
Large: 40 stitches

Step 2: Knit the Sole

Work in garter stitch (knit every row) for about 18–22 cm (7–9 inches).
This section forms the sole of the slipper and should reach from heel to toe.

Tip: Check the length by placing it against your foot.

Step 3: Shape the Toe

Now we shape the front of the slipper:

Knit 2 together at the beginning and end of every row
Continue decreasing until 10–12 stitches remain

This creates a gently rounded toe shape that fits comfortably.

Step 4: Bind Off

Bind off loosely to avoid tightness around the toes.

Step 5: Assemble the Slipper

Fold the knitted piece in half lengthwise
Sew the toe seam neatly
Sew the heel seam, leaving a snug but comfortable opening

Turn the slipper right-side out—your slipper shape is complete!

Optional Finishing Touches ✨

Add a ribbed cuff or folded edge for extra warmth
Attach a pom-pom or knitted flower for decoration
Apply non-slip dots to the sole for safety
Use contrasting yarn for a stylish border

Sizing & Customization Tips

For wider feet, cast on 2–4 extra stitches
For longer feet, knit more rows before shaping the toe
Try using bulky yarn for ultra-warm winter slippers
