The slipper is knitted flat in one piece and then folded so the seam runs along the top of the foot. there is a large increase at the start of the pattern (the heel) and some decreases as you work down to the toe.<br />I hope that helps.fidesignshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08302167080882493381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7523563600334998985.post-91719221285510202342016-12-19T14:26:59.561+00:002016-12-19T14:26:59.561+00:00Hi!

I'm not a very experienced knitter, so I was wondering how difficult these are to make, and if these are made with separate sections sewn together?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13161798616867323324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7523563600334998985.post-49316929478807593122014-12-15T12:05:48.541+00:002014-12-15T12:05:48.541+00:00Please see the answer with the comment below.Please see the answer with the comment below.fidesignshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08302167080882493381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7523563600334998985.post-48845800290350309962014-12-15T12:01:57.451+00:002014-12-15T12:01:57.451+00:00The increase for the heel is all worked in 1 row. ...The increase for the heel is all worked in 1 row. For the small size cast on 15 stitches. You immediately start with the heel increase row as follows -<br />knit 1 through back loop, knit 6, the next instruction which I am going to put into a square bracket is ALL worked into the NEXT STITCH - [k1, p1, k1, p1}. This should leave 7 more stitches to work on this row. Knit 6, yarn forward between the needles and slip the last stitch purlwise..<br /><br />The bracket is a multiple increase and is worked as follows - knit 1 but do not drop the stitch off the left needle. Bring the yarn forward and move the right needle so you can work a purl 1 but again do not drop the stitch off the left needle. Move the yarn back between the needles and work another knit 1 leaving the stitch on the left needle. Finally move the yarn forward again between the needles so you can work a purl 1 anf this time drop the stitch from the left needle. You have made 4 stitches from 1 stitch in this process.<br /><br />I hope that answers your question. For larger sizes you have to increase more stitches in this centre stitch as given in the instructions for larger sizes. fidesignshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08302167080882493381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7523563600334998985.post-50123107231853624282014-12-15T03:23:22.120+00:002014-12-15T03:23:22.120+00:00Just Mary

Could you type out how the stitches would be for the first row of increase for example of a small size.

I did them separately then did the psso. So much to learn. Thanks for you help. I am (obviously) a new knitter.JustPamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05045804511378274932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7523563600334998985.post-37223083399057348562014-11-15T08:02:27.183+00:002014-11-15T08:02:27.183+00:00I can only assume that you have not worked the dec...I can only assume that you have not worked the decreases either side of the slipped stitch line. There is a 'knit 2 together' decrease just before the slipped stitch line. You then work the slipped stitch followed by a 'slip 1 knit 1 pass slipped stitch over' decrease which makes 2 stitches decreased. These 2 decreases are repeated either side of the other slip stitch line making a total of 4 stitches decreased in this row hence the 19sts. hope that helps.fidesignshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08302167080882493381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7523563600334998985.post-49940168431008861492014-11-15T05:39:20.131+00:002014-11-15T05:39:20.131+00:00Hello, thank you for this cute slipper pattern.
