How to assembly slippers

In this DROPS video we show how we sew together a knitted slippers that is worked back and forth in one piece, this assembly is used in the Sorbet Slippers in DROPS 203-23 and others slippers.

Fold the piece at the toe, so that over side is on top of under side. Make sure that side of cast-on edge and side of cast-off edge is edge to edge (cast-on edge and cast-off edge form the hole to insert foot in slipper). Sew in front loop of edge stitch (we have choose to sew form the wrong side), begin in the side of cast-on/cast-off edge and sew up to toe. Repeat in the other side.

The Sorbet Slippers in DROPS 203-23 are worked in DROPS Alaska, but in the video we work with a thicker yarn; DROPS Snow.

Formidable vos vidéos ! Je m'inquiète tout de même que vous ne nouez pas solidement lorsque vous finissez la couture. Avec les lavages, ça tient bien ? Merci.
