This pair of slippers is worked in flat knitting with garter stitch. To create a nice shape around the toe, short-row technique is used.
To create a nice neat edge, the piece is finished with i-cord cast-off. It’s a great stash-busting project if you have 2 colours of the same yarn. It would also work well with variegated yarn.
