Someday I intend to adapt these to fit more sizes. Until then I added tips to help you adjust them, if needed. These were made to fit my women’s 8 wide feet. Stay warm.
Yaaay cool I wanted to make one and can be adjusted.
I have one question if am gonna make one for any member of the family do i need to measure it on them or is there a standard way to follow and can suite any one. I tried to made one befire but barely suited my feet or i can say was exactly as my feet size as I keep try it every round to check the size.
Thank you will try to make it
You could probably just change the yarn thickness, or hook size and get that to make different sizes. Might work for you.
You could put what you try in a journal, so we could compare.
Will see that i will try, i was really wandering how people make them then sell them and suits most people. Thanks dear
Oh yes i remembered something what the best yarn is the thick one or the thinner to make socks or slippers. What about slipping do you use something for that.
There are a lot of patterns for slippers. Maybe you should hunt one of them down. Then the sizing would be there for you. I like the thick yarn myself, but it depends on the pattern you find. I do have some spray for the bottom, but haven’t used it yet. You could add a piece of leather or something too. Slipping is the main reason I don’t make them for others.
Yes yes you are right not easy to find something good for slipping as i tried some but wasnt as expected.
Will check some patterns to get used to and with more practice and different try may find the best way for sizes thank you
@HookedByMarilyn and @Yarmihoo I use Silicone Gasket Maker on the bottom of the slippers I make. I just put dots of it randomly on the bottoms and it doesn’t come off when you wash and dry them. It works really well.
I bought super grip fabric spray. I should try it I guess …
@Lakeviewknitter thanks for sharing, maybe will try it out, will check where I can find it, is it available on amazon or not, can you give us an idea. and is it ok i can use it in different items or just for socks and slippers.
I checked and it is available on Amazon but my husband is a farmer and buys it where automobile parts are sold. It is usually used for gaskets on engines and transmissions but I thought it would also work to stop slippers from being “slippery”. It keeps its grip and stays soft through washing and drying. You could probably also put a little bit on the bottom of other items you do not want to slide around.
Yaaaay thanks dear, yeah i checked and get many different types so need to make small searches and try one with one of old slippers I had to check it first then will try it with different items. Am really thankful for you to share it with us
Dear i checked the paytern but on first of beginning you didnt mentioned to in magic ring to ch2 then work 9dc.
