This pattern is available for free.

These are very easy to make. You do not have to carry the yarn across the rows, you slip the stitches instead.

MATERIALS
Yarn: 2 balls of 4 ply worsted weight yarn in different colors. I bought large balls of yarn so I am not sure how much I used but I had lots left over. So this pattern does not use much yarn. I used black and white but you can use any color combinations that you want.

Needles: 5 mm, either double pointed or circular. I like the circular needles as I find them easier to work with.

Gauge: 6 sts = 1 inch, 8 rows = 1 inch.

Size: These will fit a 9½ inch foot. They will be very easy to adjust for smaller and larger sizes. To keep in pattern, add 4 stitches. This will increase the width almost 1 inch. For the length, to increase 1 inch work 8 more rows, to shorten the length by 1 inch leave off 8 rows. As well, you can increase or decrease the length by ½ inch by adding or subtracting 4 rows. I should add that these slippers are very stretchy.
