im at the feet, but since the legs were picked up from the bottom of the body ill have to reverse the direction of the feet. i think i also want to have socks and removable shoes, so i wont be doing the mary jane shoe strap. heres my instructions for the legs/feet in magic loop:

1. pick up 16 st from the body, knit leg
2. knit center front 6 st for 10 rows stockinette (no switching colors)
3. knit across 11th row, pick up 11 st from left side of strip, knit across back 8 st, pick up 11 from other side of strip
4. rearrange everything so there are 17 st on each side of the magic loop, with one loop at the toe and the other at the heel
5. knit half a round so that bor is now at the heel loop (i dont think this was really necessary, you can switch the order of 6 and 8 and start at the toe)
6. k3, ssk x6, k4, k2tog x6, k3
7. knit
8. k2, ssk x4, k2, k2tog x4, k2
9. knit
10. draw up rem stitches
