While this listing focuses solely on the sizes for the Shortie Slippers, please note that full details for the Faeroe Slippers are not included here due to form limitations. Both options provide a wonderful way to keep your feet warm during chilly days and nights.
Shortie Gauge: For the Shortie Slippers, the gauge is 14 stitches and 20 rows = 4” (10 cm) over Stockinette stitch using size 9 needles. You can achieve this by working with either 4 strands of DK yarn or by holding together 2 strands of heavy worsted to chunky weight yarn. If you want to experiment with different materials, swatch with 1 strand of super bulky weight yarn as an alternative.
Faeroe Gauge: For the Faeroe Slipper Socks, the gauge is slightly different at 15 stitches and 18 rows = 4” over the Leg pattern using size 10 needles, also with 2 strands of heavy worsted weight held together. Remember to use the appropriate needle sizes to achieve the required gauge. To save time in your knitting project, it’s always best to take the time to check your gauge before you start.
