How to Make Easy Knitted Slippers from 2 Loops

Beginner Friendly – Simple & Clever Technique

These slippers start with only 2 stitches, then grow into a cozy, well-shaped slipper using basic increases and decreases. They’re worked flat on two needles and require minimal sewing.

1. What You’ll Need

🧶 Materials

• Yarn:

  • Medium (worsted) or bulky yarn

  • Wool or wool blend is best

  • About 100–150 g

• Knitting needles:

  • Size 5 mm–6 mm (US 8–10) straight needles

• Other tools:

  • Tapestry needle

  • Scissors

  • Stitch markers (optional)

---

2. Size Guide (Easy to Adjust)

This pattern fits an average adult foot.

To adjust:

• More stitches at widest point = wider slipper

• More rows = longer slipper

---

3. Stitches & Skills Used

Perfect for beginners—you only need:

• Knit stitch

• Purl stitch

• Yarn over (increase)

• Knit 2 together (decrease)

• Cast on & bind off

---

4. Gauge (Not Critical)

Approximate:

• 16–18 stitches = 10 cm (4 in)

Slippers are forgiving, so exact gauge isn’t essential 😊

---

5. Step-by-Step Instructions

---

STEP 1: Cast On – Start with 2 Loops

1. Cast on 2 stitches

2. Knit both stitches

This is the starting point of the toe.

---

STEP 2: Increase for the Toe

On every right-side row:

1. Knit 1

2. Yarn over

3. Knit to last stitch

4. Yarn over

5. Knit 1

On wrong-side rows:

• Purl all stitches (purl yarn overs normally)

Continue increasing until you have 36–40 stitches.

👉 This forms a smooth, rounded toe.

---

STEP 3: Knit the Foot

1. Continue knitting straight in stockinette stitch

   • Right side: knit

   • Wrong side: purl

2. Knit until the piece measures 22–24 cm (8.5–9.5 in) from the tip

This creates the foot length.

---

STEP 4: Shape the Heel (Decrease Back to 2 Loops)

Now we reverse the process.

On right-side rows:

1. Knit 1

2. Knit 2 together

3. Knit to last 3 stitches

4. Knit 2 together

5. Knit 1

Wrong-side rows:

• Purl all stitches

Continue decreasing until 2 stitches remain.

---

STEP 5: Bind Off

• Knit the 2 stitches together

• Cut yarn and pull through

• Leave a long tail for sewing

---

6. Finishing – Very Minimal Sewing

1. Fold slipper in half lengthwise

2. Sew:

   • Back heel seam

   • Short seam at the toe (if needed)

3. Do not sew along the sole

Weave in all loose ends neatly.

---

7. Optional Cuff (Easy Upgrade!)

For ankle warmth:

• Pick up stitches around the opening

• Knit 6–10 rows in rib stitch (k1, p1)

• Bind off loosely

---

8. Beginner Tips 🌱

• Use chunky yarn for faster results

• Keep increases neat for a smooth toe

• Try slipper on as you knit

• Knit tightly at the heel for durability

---

9. Customization Ideas ✨

• Knit with two colors

• Add pom-poms or tassels

• Felt the slippers slightly

• Sew on non-slip sole patches

---
