Slippers for home are a very necessary itemclothes for the home. You don't need much experience to make them, so almost any craftswoman can knit them. The best tool for this will be knitting needles.

Footprints of the shoe: beauty in simplicity

The footprints can be knitted from different threads to make them more interesting, or embroidered with embroidery.

Cast on 42 sts. Start knitting a garter stitch – 8 rows in total. The pattern for this design is simple – knit all sts as front loops in all rows.
We divide the knitting into 20 sts in the middle and 11 stsedges. You can set up dividing threads, mark the division of the fabric into parts. Knit the loops in the middle with a contrasting thread. You can add any pattern - choose any pattern and knit it on the loops of the middle part.
Measure the length of your foot from the little toe tothe beginning of the leg lift. This is how many rows of 20 sts need to be done. After that, you can put the contrasting thread aside. Along the edges of the resulting fabric, we pick up loops. It is best to use circular knitting needles for this purpose. We make the toe using partial knitting. Its essence is that 2 sts are not knitted to the end of each row. The toe is finished when there are 4 sts on the knitting needles. After that, all the loops are knitted at once.
When 20 rows are knitted., it's the sole's turn. We continue knitting on the side part, and on the middle part - a partial pattern. We finish the work when there are no side loops left. But we will need the middle ones to make the heel of the shoe. Now all that remains is to collect the loops in a circle with a knitting needle and the shoe's soles are ready.

Seams with a pattern of "Christmas tree"

Cast on 17 sts using the main color thread.In our photo – white. 1R.: 8 ip, 1 nk, 1 lp, 1 nk, 8 ip. The remaining odd rows: 8 ip, 1 nk, LP, 1 nk, the last 8 ip. We finish the first part of the work when there are 33 sts on the needles.

Second color To make the footprints morebeautiful, we will make them in different colors. In places where the yarn of one color changes to another, cross the threads so that holes do not form. 1R: 8 ip color2, color1 - 8LP, 1 nk, 1 lp, 1 nk, 8LP, color2 - 8 ip.
We continue according to the scheme 1P until the totalthe number of loops will not reach 49 pcs. That is, 8 sts were added on each side of the fabric (16 sts in total). Now 16 sts are knitted with color 2. For the middle, we use the thread of color 1 (the main one). We reach the number of 65 sts on the knitting needles. At this stage of knitting the sock, the total number of loops is 81, of which 24 are in color 2.

Soles We divide knitting in colors. You should get 32p (color2), 17p (color 1), 32p (color2). The turn of the sole came. We perform it as follows: 17p of the middle part is knitted with the main color. To connect the sole with the sides of the shoe, do the following: after reaching the edge of the row, we sew the last loop together and the 1n from the side knitting needle. Gradually the lateral parts will decrease, and the sole will become the size of the leg. We finish knitting, as soon as the loops on the sides end. At the extremes of the length we again take the loop and go to the heel.
Heel Again, we divide everything that was typed into spokes into 3 parts and repeat the procedure, combining all the loops. We pass to 4 spokes and we untype the top of the footprint.
