We have already cast on 24 stitches and show a bit of the 1st round which is knit and a bit of the 2nd round which is purled (= 1 RIGDE in garter stitch). Work garter stich until the piece measures 3 cm. Then the first 8 stitches of the round are kept on the needle and the remaining 16 stitches are put on 1 thread. Cast on 1 stitch at the beginning and 1 stitch at the end of the 8 stitches on the needle. Work garter stich back and forth until the work measures 4 from where the stitches were put on 1 thread. Cast off 1 stitch in each side. Knit up 6 stitches in each side and put the stitches on the thread back on the needle. Put 1 marking thread in the middle of the front and 1 in the middle of the back. When the piece measures 2 from the marker threads, decrease 1 stitch on each side of the marker threads, decrease like this every other round until the piece measures 4 cm. Then cast off the remaining stitches and sew the seam under the foot in outer loops of edge stitch. These slippers are worked in DROPS Snow, the same yarn we use in the video.
