Yarn requirements: 200(240, 280) yards of your favorite worsted weight yarn will be enough to create these delightful slippers that your dog will love. You might choose vibrant colors or soothing neutrals to match your home decor!
Gauge: Achieve a gauge of 21 sts and 33 rows = 4 inches in stockinette stitch on larger needles, ensuring that your finished slippers fit perfectly (washed and air-dried).
Needles: You will need two size 5 US (3.75mm) 16- or 24-inch circular needles (or size to obtain correct gauge) and two size 4 US (3.5mm) 16- or 24-inch circular needles (making sure they are .25 mm smaller than the gauge needle).
