Are you looking to keep your toes warm during those chilly winter nights? Look no further! In this step-by-step guide, we will show you how to knit your very own woolen slippers. So grab your knitting needles, some cozy yarn, and let’s get started!

Materials You’ll Need:

  • Knitting needles (size 8 or as per your preference)
  • Worsted weight yarn (choose your favorite color!)
  • Tapestry needle
  • Scissors
  • Stitch markers (optional)

Step 1: Cast On

Start by casting on 40 stitches using the long-tail cast-on method. This will form the base of your slipper.

Step 2: Knit the Cuff

Continue knitting in the round using a knit 2, purl 2 ribbing pattern for the first 2 inches. This creates an elastic and snug cuff for your slippers.

Step 3: Knit the Body

After completing the cuff, switch to knitting all stitches in the round until your slipper measures 8 inches from the cast-on edge. Feel free to adjust the length if you prefer shorter or taller slippers.

Step 4: Shape the Toe

To shape the toe, switch to knitting in decreasing rounds. Start by knitting 18 stitches, then knit 2 together, and repeat this pattern until you reach the end of the round. This reduces the number of stitches gradually.

Step 5: Finishing Touches

When you have just a few stitches left, cut the yarn leaving a tail. Thread the tail through the tapestry needle and pass it through the remaining stitches, removing them from the knitting needle. Pull tight to close the toe. Weave in any loose ends with the tapestry needle.

Step 6: Repeat for the Second Slipper

Follow the exact same steps to knit the second slipper, ensuring you have a matching pair!

Final Thoughts

There you have it – your very own woolen slippers! These cozy and handmade slippers are not only great for keeping your feet warm but also for gifting to friends and family.
