Materials Required
For these stylish Toba Slippers, you'll need 2 skeins of Hinterland Watershed yarn, which is a luxurious blend of 50% Alpaca and 50% Rambouillet Wool. This premium yarn not only provides warmth but also offers exceptional durability and softness for ultimate comfort.
Recommended Knitting Needles
To create your Toba Slippers, use 5mm/US 8 double-pointed needles (dpns) or a long circular needle for the magic loop technique (for knitting the foot). For the cozy cuff, switch to 6mm/US 10 dpns or a long circular needle. If you wish to add customized ties, a 6mm/10-J crochet hook is optional.
Essential Notions
Ensure your knitting experience goes smoothly by gathering the necessary notions: you'll need 4 stitch markers to keep track of your stitches and a yarn needle for weaving in ends.
Gauge Information
For the perfect fit, achieve a gauge of 15.25 stitches and 24 rows = 4 inches (10 cm) in Stockinette stitch using the smaller needles when working in the round. This gauge is essential to ensure your slippers fit comfortably around your feet.

The Toba Slippers are graded for three sizes: S (M, L) to fit foot circumferences of approximately 8 (9, 9.75) inches or 20.5 (23, 25.5) cm at the instep. The sample shown in the images has been knitted in size M. These slippers are designed to give you a snug yet flexible fit that keeps your feet warm.
