I'd like to first say that although I have knitted a few things in the past they have all been some form of square or rectangle in the most basic stitch. Knitting patterns have always been completely beyond me with all their abbreviations and complicated instructions, it's like a completely different language that I definitely do not speak! However, I saw this slipper pattern and knew it was time to get over my fear. I was assured that it was a super simple pattern that I would have no trouble with however I was still sceptical.
But as you can see I proved myself wrong! Line one of the pattern was simple, but I came unstuck already on line two with 'Knit into front and back of stitch' what is that? Luckily Google came to my aid and I found a great photo tutorial which made it simple as can be! They took only a couple of hours each over a weekend and I love them. Although they fitted perfectly they felt like they were about to fall off at all times so I stitched in the ribbon which sorted that problem and looked lovely to boot! :) I'm now feeling inspired by my success to try another (easy peasy) knitting pattern! :)
