Notes

As you can see by the photos, Angus is very happy with his slippers. He watched them go around in the machine! By request, the last 2 photos show Angus’ first attempt at knitting!

Knitted to 8-1/2 inches before starting toe section.

Used magic loop so stitch markers helped immensely in the toe section.

Made points symmetrical by changing order:
1st slipper: point 1, point 2, point 1, point 2
2nd slipper: point 2, point 1, point 2, point 1

Bobbles
With RS facing and 3 stitches remaining:
S1, put 2nd stitch on crochet hook and make bobble.
Here’s how:

Transfer stitch of completed bobble to LH needle and K2tog tbl, psso.

Tidied bobble and point when sewing in the ends.

2 rows of i-chord before binding off;
8mm needles for points in Panda DK;
Placed pin and knitted 37 rows between heel w & t’s and starting toe.

I hope you found these notes helpful:)
