Easy Loom Knit Slipper Socks

One of the best videos I've seen out there for making socks! I can't wait to see what else you have posted. Videos I've seen out there for making socks! I can't wait to see what else you have posted. If you haven't already I'd like to know if you can do a video about how to make a hat that closes flat. Flat like if we were to have done it in the round crocheting. I hope that makes sense. Thanks again for this awesome video!

[@GinaLay]

@@MissticalRulez wow! Thank you so much! This comment made my heart so happy. 💕 Thank you! 🙏 I do have a few hat videos. Let me know if you are not seeing what you are looking for. I’m also open go any suggestions on what you would like to see a video on. 💕🙏Thank YOU for watching and being here!

Maine woods * I’m an 80 year old man living by myself in the Maine woods. I have a lot of trouble walking so needed something to stay busy. I ordered the whole set of looms, round and the long ones. I really enjoy knitting on them and give most of my stuff away. Your videos are easy to follow. Just made this set of slipper/socks and by far the best. Thank you.

I bought some looms to learn how to knit with them. You are a good teacher, explaining thoroughly, using the correct knitting terms, and one can easily see what you are doing. I watched this entire video. I feel like I just heard someone speaking a foreign language to me. Nothing on your part. It is me. I am overwhelmed.

[@GinaLay]

Awhhh ♥️How can I help? When my husband got me my first set of looms I tried once and got overwhelmed. I kept them in the closet for a year. 😅 I wish I wouldn’t have. Seriously, let me know how I can help. I could even make a video to help with any of your questions. 🧘‍♀️♥️

Thank you for this video! Im making these for my husband for a 7th year anniversary gift, traditionally a gift of something wool. I will say, I wish that you went over sewing the toe and closing up all loose ends more in detail. I am not a sewer or knitter so it may be obvious to others, but I was left questioning how I finished things off. Overall this video was easy to follow, and I did watch your heel video too :)

[@GinaLay]

Happy Anniversary! 💕Thank you for watching and for your feedback. 🧦 🧶

[@LavenderSkyla]

Chunky yarn works best. I've made several of these and they're so comfy! Good design too because they hold up well in the washer then line dry

[@pandagirl4167]

Same here! Although I've already had to restart three times...pulled out the old one to start fresh...first row was so tight I couldn't put it over the second...then the second time it seemed too loose! :/ Frustrating but super glad this video is here. I can pause, rewind and slow it down how ever much I need to. 🥰

[@Weezieweeks]

I started these with Seasons bulky yarn but mine stitches looked much looser than video. So I switched to Wool-Ease Thick and Quick (super bulky) and liked the results much better and looked a lot more like the video and the written pattern, which I did buy. I love them. I have 3 skeins and think I will get 2 pairs from that and plan to make the leg part a little longer - maybe 10 rows instead of five. Thank you so much for the video and the heel video was super helpful as well! I did not do it right on my first try and "got it" after watching the heel video.

[@GinaLay]

weezieweeks Thank you so much for your feedback! I am glad the video was helpful. ❤️

[@drummergirl495]

I bought one of these looms at a craft show many years ago and got frustrated when I tried to make a hat, put it back into the package and stuck it in a drawer. You made it look like even a non knitter could make slippers. I’ll pull it back out and give it another go...Thanks!

I modified this a bit to make the cuff thicker and the ankle bit longer. Rather than 10 rows for the cuff, I did 16, and rather than 5 for the top of the ankle (from the cuff to the heel), I did 10 rows rather than 5. That seemed to fit my grandad a bit better than the shorter ankle. This was so easy, though, thanks so much for sharing!

[@sonofeloah]

Thank you. Question: could this be done so it would be with a long neck and be more like a "crew sock"? Something like this would make great winter socks for those of us who work outside in the snowy winter months and are tired of spending the extra dollars for so-called "thermal" socks that are nothing more than different colored regular socks and do not help keep your feet that much warmer than the regular crew socks. So, one would add more rows before making the heel?

Yes, you could definitely make a longer neck. 🙂 Exactly... add more rows. You got it! 👍

I could have made this comment. I’ve never decreased either. I just made the basic hat.

[@sharonwills3603]

This is the best tutorial I have seen in a while. However Gina, Is there a pattern for making smaller, child sized loom knit slipper socks? I would love to make them for My Grandsons. If there is a smaller round loom, let Me know. You walked us through "turning the heel" so well. I have subscribed to all Your tutorials

[@GinaLay]

Awhhhh thank you! You are so sweet!💙🤍 The only smaller loom I know of had 12 pegs which make baby booties. I do have another video that might work but it’s not for slipper socks. I will link it here below. 💜😊Thanks for watching. Thank you for being here and sharing your kindness. 🙏⭐️

[@j3rykk]

Can’t wait to use this tutorial! I have knitted socks with sock yarn before on double ended needles, but I assume that will be too thin for a loom. What type of yarn should I use? Is acrylic itchy for socks? Thank you ☺️

[@GinaLay]

With this loom, I use a #5 🧶 yarn. I link an example in the description box so you can take a look at the exact yarn and #. With this look a thin yarn won’t work well. I am so excited for you. Keep in mind this is very different than needle knitting. Some people find this easier because they can’t manage two needles. I know you will make an awesome pair of slipper socks and I am excited to see how you like it. Thanks for being part of my little community! 😊🙏💕

[@joanndyson2703]

I am in shock! The slipper at the end looks so good and it only took about 30 minutes!!!🤯

[@momoeverbloom3240]

Your videos are fantastic and so easy to follow i love them! Ive loom knitted a long time but i love your videos! Do you ever loom in other gauges? Id love to see your work on smaller gauges ❤

[@GinaLay]

Awhhh, thank you! 🙏 That’s so very sweet of you to say. I have never used a smaller gauge loom before. One day I might try. Do you have any suggestions on the type of looms or what to make? ❤️❤️❤️Thanks for being part of my channel! 🙏

[@momoeverbloom3240]

@GinaLay 3/8 gauge is the most common used small gauge, honestly you can make next to anything haha! Hats, scarves, blankets and even socks are fantastic in small gauge. I personally love KB small gauge looms, but the flexee looms are great too. That being said, they all do the same thing really so any 3/8 gauge loom so long as you have the right amount of pegs will work just as good as the branded versions. I am a blanket maker myself, I also use e-wrap over other knit stitches due to damaged nerves in my hands and it can be quite painful to do tight stitches so for blankets I use the KB Afghan loom and the multi knit adjustable purple loom. For hats I use flexee skinny and a neat cheap set of small gauge looms I found on Amazon. It's quite interesting to see stitch definitions change from chunky gauge like your video here to smaller gauge too but project wise you can do anything from large gauge patterns as well. Being in the UK it's easier for me to get #4 weight yarn than it is the chunky yarn used for larger loom gauges haha 😆

[@GinaLay]

Oh wow! This is great information!! Thank you! 🙏 I will take a screenshot and look into these.♥️ I appreciate the suggestions so much. I will keep you informed for sure if I decide to try. 💕Thank you again for being here!

[@GinaLay]

Thank you so much for your kind words! I suggest knitting in whichever way is comfortable to you. I was told I knit like a left hander and I am right handed.🤷‍♀️♥️ Maybe try how I am holding it and see how it feel. 😊 Thank you for being here.

[@lt1136]

If you put your yarn through a short drinking straw (about 4 inches long, use a crochet hook) before you start, it will greatly increase you wrapping speed.

[@GinaLay]

L T Thank you for sharing your tips! :)

[@stinewatson1869]

The straw really works a treat, much speedier!

[@jeannieeaton8429]

Thank you for your help. My second try came out perfect. What type of yarn is the best to use?

[@victoriathornton2973]

Using the barrel of an empty pen or old mechanical pencil works as well

[@Matt76891]

Do you know why final product may be a bit loose? I used a 24 peg loom like you did. The only thing that was different is I used a bit thicker of a yarn? Do I need to be wrapping each peg tighter then? This was my first ever knitting project and your video was SUPER helpful so thank you!!

[@GinaLay]

Awh thank you! When you wrap the pegs try to remember somewhere in between.. not too tight but not too loose. . I hope that makes sense. Also make sure you are knitting and ending your slipper where you can just see the tip of your big toe. 🤗

[@Matt76891]

@@GinaLay ohhh thank you for the response. I think I mean to clarify what I meant though: I meant loose as in the knits all around are kinda loose. I am not entirely sure how best to explain it but overall sock is kinda loose not necessarily "fit" per se. Thank you again for taking the time to respond to questions!!

[@Ev_deGallery]

It would be great if you would add the pattern in the description. I keep having to rewind:) but so far sock number one is awesome!

Do you have a Michael’s, Hobby Lobby, Joanne Fabrics or any local craft store should have looms. 🙂 You definitely can do this. Also use a yarn with the #5 on the label. Keep me posted! 🤗

[@alysemurphy3592]

Walmart

[@GinaLay]

Walmart does have looms but be careful of some. I have heard a lot of reviews that don’t like the looms with the hooks on the end of the pegs. They look like crochet hooks on the end.

How long does it take you to finish one sock? I have a few challenges 4 kiddos 6 years old 4 years old twins and a 2 1/2 years. I have to have all 4 pairs done before I even tell them I am thinking about making them socks ... They don't want to be the last one getting socks blablabla. Trying to get myself mentally prepared for this great project. Thanks
