The Let’s Stay Home Slippers have a unique one-piece construction where you begin in the middle and work in both directions, sometimes knitting in the round and sometimes knitting flat. The heel is a short-row heel with inventive shaping, and the edging is stitched on after completing the knitting! They are a super speedy little project with a few fun skills (all with linked video tutorials to give you confidence!) and you’ll want to make a pair in every color!
