Slipper Size:
The slippers featured in this pattern are designed to fit EU size 38 / US size 7.5. However, you can easily customize the length of the foot to accommodate your personal sizing needs, allowing for a perfect fit whether for yourself or as a thoughtful gift.
Yarn Choices:
For these slippers, you will need any Aran-weight sock yarn, with approximately 200 m / 100 g (or 218 yards / 3.5 oz) required. The pair showcased in the accompanying photo were beautifully crafted using Novita 7 Brothers yarn in the festive colors Christmas (549) and Natural White (010), creating a charming holiday aesthetic.
Recommended Needles:
It's essential to choose the right needle size based on your gauge. The sample slippers were knitted with 3 mm (US 2.5) double-pointed needles. For best results with Aran-weight yarn, the recommended needle sizes range from 3.5 mm to 4 mm (US 4 to 6), ensuring a snug yet comfortable fit for your slippers.
Gauge Specifications:
To achieve the desired fit and texture, use the *Knit 1 through the back loop, Purl 1* ribbing pattern, where you’ll find that 30 stitches equal 10 cm (4 in). Proper gauge is crucial for ensuring your finished slippers are both stylish and comfortable.
Yarn Requirements:
For the main body of the slipper, you will need approximately 60 g (2.1 oz), while the cuff will require about 10 g (0.35 oz). This efficient use of yarn makes these slippers not only a fun project but also economical!
