Notes

I used 37 ridges from the split since 22 is clearly not right.

I’m intending these to be new slippers for modern wear so I didn’t care about using a heathered yarn that wouldn’t have been available in 1901.

I traced a pair of flats for the soles. Somehow these are very wide even though those shoes fit well, but I think they’ll do their job.
