HOW TO KNIT CABLE SLIPPERS

[@michellelarose7682]

Thank you for writing the pattern over. I’ve had this pattern on my list for years to do. Every winter I look at it but get discouraged with the original pattern. I just read your pattern. I can finally make these slippers. 🎉

[@dj_alboe1360]

I love, love, LOVE that you provided a pattern and a video combination!! I want to learn to knit slippers and having the two together is going to be more help than I can express. THANK YOU!!

[@claudiagarduno7597]

Love ALL YOUR youTube videos ...my daughter (14) & I already finish 5 pairs for Christmas gifts and try to finish one more! SUPER CUTE!!

[@iKNITS]

Wow! You girls have been busy! That's so good to hear, thank you so much for watching :)

[@Lenzi91]

Yeeeessss!!! I've been wanting to knit these for a while now! Thank you so much for posting this tutorial! I can't wait to get started!!

[@heisebasse]

Hi from Denmark :) OMG you just taught me how to knit slippers. I thought it was mission impossible :) Thank you so much :) Heidi

[@iKNITS]

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE follow along with the written pattern!!! I am sorry I did not show my progress of the whole project as I was knitting it. I should have known how more helpful that would have been if I did that. I will post pics soon on my blog if that will help. But following along with the pattern will help tremendously!

[@Martina2560]

Yes everyone! Different sizes calls for different number of stitches! I had to unravel my work 4 times because of not paying attention to the pattern and only listening to the video so be careful! Thank you so much for making this video, because without it I would NEVER had been able to figure out the project. :-)

I love your videos! They're helpful knit a longs. After watching the owl video you did from the Purl Bee, I knitted one for myself. It's a much smaller scale but I had the confidence to do it after watching you. Please keep posting!

[@iKNITS]

Thanks! I sure will!

[@menahomberg]

I think that it's cool that you use metal needles a lot. Those are my favorite types of knitting needles to use because I find that the tips don't wear out as much.

[@j2cool2]

You have a lot of really cool videos. Love the celebrity hat. Um, I dont know if anyone else notice this. I did read the comments but not all of them. Garter stitch is when you knit all the rounds and what you are doing at the beginning of the boot is stockinette. I really like the look of these boots. I am going to give it a go. I hope it will not be too hard for a lrft handed knitter like myself.

[@rejeanneduval807]

I have made over 15 pairs as gifts and am working on another pair. First time was a challenge but once you make 1 pair, it's a cinch. Good luck . They are beautiful and warm.

[@Lydiaguenther]

I wanted to say thank you thank you thank you thank you. I found this exact pattern but didnt get how they did it. I get so lost in the instructions. :) I didnt quite get it with the cable needles but i did it with 5 needles and it works better for me. But you really really really helped me out. i am so excited. :)

[@iKNITS]

So good to hear success stories! I am very glad to hear that I was able to help you! Thank you so much for taking the time to let me know, and let me know how it turns out!

[@koothoot]

This is not too difficult. I have found all Drops patterns to be somewhat confusting. Good on you doing an entire video on the pattern. Well done.

[@Lin029]

Question for you Christine! At 13:08, you're starting the pattern for the loose leg part.. Row1: Knit all for garter stitch. Row2: Knit and increase the 6 sts. Row3: Isn't it suppose to be RS? So P3, K2, P2, K6, etc.? Thank you for answering :)

[@iKNITS]

So rows 1&2 you need with increasing on row 2. Then you start the A.1 which starts on the wrong side. So your row 3 would be on the WS. I wrote it out on my blog so it would be easier to understand. But I'll put it here: A.1 Row 1(WS): K3, P2, K2, P6, K2, P6, K2, P2, K3 Row 2(RS): K5, P2, K6, P2, K6, P2, K5 Row 3(WS): K3, P2, K2, P6, K2, P6, K2, P2, K3 Row 4(RS): K5, P2, K6, P2, K6, P2, K5 Row 5(WS): K3, P2, K2, P6, K2, P6, K2, P2, K3 Row 6:(RS): K5, P2, slip 3 sts on cable needle in front of piece, K 3, K 3 from cable needle, P2, slip 3 sts on cable needle behind piece, K 3, K 3 from cable needle, P2, K5 Row 7(WS): K3, P2, K2, P6, K2, P6, K2, P2, K3 Row 8(RS): K5, P2, K6, P2, K6, P2, K5 Last Row 8: K5, P2, K2tog(3 times), P2, K2tog(3 times), P2, K5 Knit the next 2 rows. Then BO. Let me know if this helps!

[@Lin029]

***** Yes, it helps! Thanks a lot. You are soooo quick for replies haha :) I should have looked to your blog before commenting. Sorry about that! Just to let you know, I've send you a message on Ravelry about questions/a request for the Bernat Glitter Shawl! I hope you'll consider it for a video tutorial :)

[@kc-zd8ir]

Thank you SO much for doing this - I didn't have a clue how to do the A1 Diagram! I have typed a written out version and have it saved in case I make these again! :)

[@ndhernandez]

Hi I started this project following along with your video and the pattern. I am still on the foot part and it seems like it's small did your look small at first but end up the right size when you were done?

[@tamrissa]

this is a fantastically done video, very helpful very easy to follow along and shown up close is perfect for those following along with the pattern! only thing is i wish you showed the finished two together in a pic of how they turned out for you other than that i loved this, thank you!

[@iKNITS]

Thank you Tamrissa Tealady I always post a pic of the end result at the end of the video, however, I haven't finished the second slipper. I ran out of yarn and haven't gone to get more of it :/ Sorry about that!

[@tamrissa]

no worries it was great! i had linked the pattern on fb and my 3 sisters and friends all started requesting slippies lol, im just getting back into it after years away and this was incredibly helpful!

[@estellosbest4322]

Here is a link to my Raverly page where you can find pics of the slipper. It has the finish foot, leg portion (un-made), and the finished slipper. iKnit, feel free to share it with others as I have also put a link to your channel in the description directing people here to see how it is made. This way we can help each other in giving views the missing information (and instruction to putting the leg and foot together as well). www.ravelry.com/projects/DntUnRavL/150-4-little-red-riding-slippers---slippers-with-cables-in-eskimo

[@roxanneflowers4790]

Those are adorable! Is there anyway that they can be done or if you make a tutorial in crochet?

[@barbaralee245]

Hello, i love your knitted boots, do you have a tutorial in crochet? I don't knit but would love to make these

[@claudiacarranza1899]

Hola soy de México, ya he visto muchas veces el video, y te agradezco que lo hayas compartido. las botitas estan hermosas, ahora mismo estoy intentando hacerlas, pues me es dificil por el tipo de ahujas, pues no se tejer en redondo, me podrías decir como cuantos puntos coloco en la ahuja para una talla 7, gracias y felicidades.

[@glenysdunford819]

I love your tutorials so easy to understand thank you for sharing

[@barbaraholdeman7853]

Okay, question... after picking up stitches on one side of flap and putting stitches back on needle do you knit around to the other side to pick up the rest of the stitches?

[@thedukeofyormom]

In your instructions, you say (in the foot portion): When piece measures 3/4''(2cm), K2tog on each side of every marker on every other round(or every knit round) - 4 sts decrease per round. Continue dec until piece measures 2"(2", 2½") 5cm(5cm, 6cm) I was wondering if when you measure the 2", is this from the last measurement (after you have measured the 3/4") or from when you start to knit the sides?

[@lynnlemonwknits255]

This is a fantastic video! Thank you so much for posting it! I have never knitted cables before and you made it simple. It's definitely a good idea to keep the written instructions nearby, though.

[@prideofyaghaz4272]

thanks for this amazing tutorial if I want to use worsted yarn not chunky still following the pattern or should i change a thing ?

[@iKNITS]

If you use thinner yarn, your slippers will turn out too small. You’ll have to hold your yarn double if you want it to work. Make sure you do a gauge.

[@prideofyaghaz4272]

@@iKNITS thaks so so much

[@transformers1ization]

Hi. I'm following what you’re doing with the two pointed needles, cause I don't have the one that you have, and I'm kinda stuck on the first part of the foot wear. Can you give me any tips or explanation on how to do it? Sorry to ask you that.

[@j2cool2]

At 8:27 when you mention placing the markers midway and before you begin the round, I noticed you had another marker. Is that to mark the beginning of the round?

[@iKNITS]

+j2cool2 Yes it is. You always need a marker when you're knitting in the round so you know where the beginning is.

[@mikaelagroenewald5349]

I don't know how many times I have watched it over and over

[@meghanlaplante1094]

hello iKNITS! i love you videos and usually have such an easy time following along. im also using a super bulky loops and threads yarn but my sizing was WAY off the whole time. for example where you say it took you 14 ridges to get 2 3/4" on the foot part, mine was only about 5 ridges to reach that length. any ideas why?

[@iKNITS]

Hey thank you! Oh wow! Hmm are you using the right size needles? Maybe you're a really loose knitter? There is a gauge on the written pattern, I would do the gauge and see how far off you are. I'm sorry that's such a bummer when that happens!

[@meghanlaplante1094]

+iKNITS thanks for replying so fast i was using 10s...im guessing it's the yarn...i. going to try bulky as opposed to super bulky

[@Chany_san]

Hi, I'm French, and I don't understand at the biginning : you say to cast on 40 st, and then, on the video, you have your stitches on the 2 needles : How do you do ? You cast on 20 st on one and 20 stiches on the other ? Or it doesn't matter ? Thank you for the answer ;)

[@dzeegirl]

Hello. I just love these Cable slippers and my adult daughter asked me if I could knit her some. I only have double pointed needles so can I knit these slippers with double pointed needles? What size circular needles are you using ? How would I knit these slippers on double pointed needles? Thank you

[@kysmik8214]

yes you can, you dont need circulars to knit these slippers

[@jennettelolalyste4340]

Handy Helper: when binding off the last stitch you cast on, knit until you have the two last stitches on your left needle pull your cast on stitch over your second stitch. then knit your last stitch like normal. I hope that helped some of you!

[@torza8827]

Beautiful..thanks for the video...can u tell me which knitting size u used for it?

[@iKNITS]

Size US 10

Thank you for sharing this! You've been a lifesaver. ♡

[@jemfangirl5132]

Hi there! I am so glad that I found this tutorial! I was so confused reading the pattern that I didn't even want to try these, but I wanted them so bad. I have a question (I'm sure it won't be my last) about decreasing the foot area (at 8:58 in the video) You said that on every knitted round to K2 before and after the heel/toe markers, so just to clarify we are knitting one round, then purling one round and only decrease on the knitted round? Thanks again for putting this video up!

[@iKNITS]

Yes on every other round, so on the knitted rounds! You got it girl! Seriously, the pattern is horrible!!! But it's free, so I can't complain :)

[@DreamingOfAlaska]

thank you so much for making this video, its so much easier to understand than the written pattern, i cant wait to make these.

hi, would you please make this video using 34/36 beging stiches (shoe 5) & shoe how project is moving along time to time Great tutorial I just would like to see how it looks as project is moving along in knitting.. Thank you for all the videos

[@iKNITS]

+Tonie Sal Hey, I think what I will do is post pictures of how it looks like as I continue in the project. Making a video is very time consuming and I think I would rather spend time on making new projects. Does that make sense? But I will be happy to answer any questions you might have!

[@emiloupainless]

I pulled the 11 stitches back on the cable, picked up 16, put the stitches from the holder back on the needle, & then picked up 16 stitches again, but my working yarn isn't at the end of the needle like yours is, I'm not sure how to get it to that. I've tried it 3 different times & yet I still can't seem to understand. I'm a beginner & a very very visual learner. I'm not sure how to get the working thread to the tip of the needle so we can still continue knitting.

[@nmrolls]

I really enjoyed your video! Very informative and easy to follow. Thanks!

[@lexisbeckett]

When you place the majority of your stitches on the stitch holder and then continue the garter st on the 11 sts... you said to continue until it is 4". But do you mean the entire piece (as in from the very beginning, counting the first 1.5") or do you mean that that new section of just 11 sts (well 13 once you added one on either end) with be 4"? Sorry if that was not worded very clearly! :)

[@iKNITS]

It's just the 11/13 stitches for 4 inches. You are following along with the written pattern right?

[@DenaTP4]

I don't know how to do this but I definitely want to learn. Also is there a way to make this in crochet

[@iKNITS]

You should try it! But I would suggest knitting something easier if this is your first project ever. This is kind of a challenge and the written pattern is very hard to understand because it's very vague. I did my best to make it easier to understand. Let me know how it goes!

[@melaniecharlton7121]

I really dont like knitting on circular needles.How would I be able to do this on straight needles? Would love a video done on straight needles of this pattern😊

[@circulodehadas]

Me gusta mucho verte tejer, me gustan muchísimo tus vídeos, y cuando usas música con ukelele quedan unos vídeos especialmente relajantes.

[@kristal8792]

garter stitch is normally just knitting rows, stockinette stitch is knit 1 row purl 1 row. or is it on different patterns that there is a different meaning for it?

[@iKNITS]

Yes you are correct. Did I say it wrong somewhere? I most definitely could have! Sorry if I did!

[@charlesgodfrey1296]

***** I think it was because when knitting in the round, garter stitch becomes k1 row p1 row since if you just knit all rows in the round it becomes stockinette stitches.

[@UntamedFireheart]

Hi!! Im trying to knit these right now (they don't sell size 10 here and so far I've done the cabled part in a size 11 do you think I should do the foot part size 9 or 11?) also I tried the foot part yesterday and once I got to the part where I was supposed to pick up 16 stitches I got really lost! I'm making the smallest size (so I think I need to pick up 12) but I can't find 12 stitches to pick up ): I can get maybe 8ish but I can't figure out where to get 12 from!! Please help!

[@JuliaGrandison]

I'm not sure if I missed this on your blog, ravelry, or in your video, but how many yards did you use for this project? I intend purchasing some super bulky yarn soon, and I would like to know how many skeins of the brand I'm going to use.

[@iKNITS]

I needed 3 skeins of yarn. Not sure how much it is, but in the written pattern, it should say how much you need. The link is under the video in the description bar. Let me know if you have any more questions!

[@greeningproductions]

Hi ... you appear to have THREE (3) markers on the needles ... ONE mid-heel, ONE mid-toe, and ONE at the beginning of the 11 stitches. Are you decreasing on each side of ALL THREE markers or just at the mid-heel and mid-toe? Thank you.

[@iKNITS]

So one of the markers is to know where my round started. The other two are mid toe and mid heel. You k2tog on both sides of the mid toe and mid heel stitch every other round. So 4 decrease in one round. So we aren't decreasing on the stitch marker that I'm using to know where my round starts. Does that make sense?

[@carolemaharaj8837]

I have a size 5.5. I made this with cast on 40. What would be how many to cast on for my size of foot? And for the leg part? Please.

[@lindaswanson2537]

[@chelseamoore5993]

On the picture of the finished slippers, the sides of the foot have the rows going horizontally, but they are vertical with your instructions. Are you doing a different method and if so, is the only way to get the look from the picture to just make the top and sole as separate pieces, and then sew them together with a long thin piece for the sides?

[@chelseamoore5993]

My apologies, it seems that in the original pattern, where it explains exactly how to make the heel of a sock or slipper, is actually for the top of the slipper. I detest DROPS patterns.

[@nicolehorstman9020]

What size circular needle (16", 24", etc.) are you using? I tried following the original pattern using DPNs, but it gets awkward when you get to the point where you have to pick up the stitches on the wide and the holder.

[@iKNITS]

+Nicole Horstman Hey Nicole I just saw your comment hope it's not too late but it doesn't really matter what size when you are using the magic loop method. But when I pick up the stitches it's nice to have a good size right? So the ones I'm using are 26" long. I hope that helps! Did you end up making it?

[@sshaakii]

What brand of yarn do you use for the boots? Thanks!

Hi iKNITS, I am very new to knitting but I love to take on challenges. For example right know I am learning how to arm knit. So my question is what is the size of the needles you used? I like to follow along as closely as possible.

[@iKNITS]

Hey Megan, that's great that you like to take on challenges! I look up to that. I used size US 10 needles. Good luck and let me know how it turns out!

[@julieberbrick6134]

[@judyjones4935]

How do you make the leg opening on the opposite side. It would be nice to know how many rows versus inches.

[@iKNITS]

Lots of patterns that have different sizes to them go with the inches route. It bothers me too because I want it to be PERFECT, but that's just how it goes. I didn't make the pattern, I'm sorry. I believe the leg openings are just the same, you just put the top cable part of it the opposite way.

[@doodlewat13]

Is there anyway you could do a basket weave for the loose leg? I made these slippers but I plan on making another pair with a different loose leg pattern just can't figure out how I would do it.

[@iKNITS]

oh man, I'm sure you could. The easiest way I would do is search for basket weave slippers and see what patterns you find. Let me know how it goes!

[@PharrezFilms1]

on your rewritten pattern, what are the sizes you have? I couldn't find them. for example, 36(40) what are the sizes for each cast on? thanks!

[@iKNITS]

+Wilna Louw Hey Wilna. The great thing about this slipper is that both slippers are made the exact same way!!! All you do differently is sew the top part on the outer sides of each leg so they face outwards! Makes it more simple right?!

[@creolecrochetqueen2203]

you make me smile. :) i'm making these for work soon.

[@tmkoson]

I'm doing the pattern as we speak and you do not knit two rounds after the cable row! What ya do, toss out the part of the pattern w/ the chart on it!! To save time and ease the knitting injury in my fingers and shoulder, I did a simple basic loom knit slippers. Working on the cabling section around leg to sew on once done.

[@ashleybosse8670]

So where can I find the pattern for the section called A.1? I don't know how to cable knit so I need the pattern for the leg part of the slipper. And A.1 is not in your rewritten pattern.

[@haileyadney9702]

how many sts do I need to cast on for a size 5 foot?

[@Clio55sexy]

Hello thank you fore replying me back..I am stuck on the rows at the start of the pattern in your video and then the next part for the foot when you said up to 4 inches but how many rows is that..could you some how put it in rows..I know is allot to ask but in your video you jump allot and is hard for me to follow.

[@iKNITS]

Okay so for the leg, CO the amount of stitches for the size you're making, and then you knit for 1 1/2 inches. 4 inches, you will have to measure it because it's different for everybody depending on your tension.

[@loominl6215]

How much wool does it take to make the middle size please?

[@Clio55sexy]

Hello I didn't hear from you..I wanted to ask in your video from 8.06 when you said stitch markers..how many rows do I go round for?

[@iKNITS]

3/4 inches

[@mprice7676]

I am SUPER confused at one thing...all of the magic loop tutorials say to MAKE SURE your working yarn is OVER the back needle when pulling the needle off to work with it. However, when you PURL for the second row, the yarn can't be over the back needle when pulling the needle out. If so, it creates another stitch, so is it safe to assume that Knit = Yarn Over, Purl = Yarn in between needles? Thanks!!

[@iKNITS]

YES!!! You figured it out faster than I did I bet! lol. That is so right :)

[@ButterFlyWingsFly131]

What weight of yarn do you use???? or even recommend?? :) love your videos

[@iKNITS]

+Trisha A Hello Trisha, if I were you, I would work on some other easier patterns before beginning this one. This is not a beginner pattern and I think it will cause you more headache than you'd like until you have a little more experience. But if you think you can, then I say go for it!

[@sofistikatedgurl1]

can these be made on a loom, and if do, how do I go about it. 😶

[@iKNITS]

Megan Oliver I am not sure..I've only used a loom once or twice and it's been a long time ago.

[@j2cool2]

Sorry me again. At 8:26 you said knit for inches but the text said three quarter inch. Is there a reason for two different notes?

[@iKNITS]

There are two different sizes, or maybe even 3, can't remember. So that's probably why it's different. I made the biggest size.

[@j2cool2]

***** I think you misunderstand. At 8:26 you say to knit for 4 inches (for the largest size slipper which I am knitting too) but the instructions and words that show in the video say to only knit for 3/4 inches. That is what I am pointing out and wondering why you are doing different? It is the nice the difference in size but appears to be an error with the instructions being given. If you watch your video you will see it.

[@merryoldlandofroz9875]

ok once u pick up the 16 stitches on one side & u knit them do u keep knitting til u reach to the other side or u pass the string to the other side & knit the other 16

[@iKNITS]

Erisma Rodriguez yes you knit the other side first.

[@erismarodriguez2031]

I'm confused still sorry is because I have 16 stitches picked up & knitted them but I don't know if I should knit the rest til I reach the side of the 16 & then knit them

[@iKNITS]

I wish had shown how puutting the stitches on the holder. I am confused at how to do it. The written instructions say, leave the first. Number of stitches on the needle and then put.a certain number of stitches on the holder. But how do I get pass the first number of stiytches to keep on the needle?

[@iKNITS]

+j2cool2 So what I did was slipped them off starting at the last stitches on my right needle, and worked my way towards the left needle. Hope that helps and sorry I just saw this! Ahhh!

Can you post the video of the double pointed needles

[@DreamingOfAlaska]

doing magic loop, do you knit both parts (all the stitches ) as 1 round or do half the stitches count as a round?

[@iKNITS]

All the stitches equal one round 😊

[@asiago100]

Do you happen to have the written pattern for the booties? I may have missed it if it was posted some where else. I like to knit outside the home and can't use my computer. Thanks

[@iKNITS]

Yes I always post the written pattern underneath the video in the description bar. Let me know if you have trouble finding it!

[@asiago100]

***** Your video is for magic loop. The pattern is on double pointed needles. Any video for dpns?

[@iKNITS]

Nope. You make it the exact same way, just with DPNs. Do you know how to use DPNs?

[@asiago100]

***** Yes, can pretty much do anything, except this pattern. It needs some tweeking. I'm sure it's just me.

[@iKNITS]

Ya this pattern is very aggravating sometimes. I might rewrite it for them so it's easier to understand.

[@nanies0]

How long do your circular needles have to be?

[@jennychan3592]

[@jennychan3592]

[@jessn8700]

Hey! Sorry if this question was already asked, but I noticed the pattern says to add 3 markers but you put 3. What is the third one for?

[@iKNITS]

+Jess N the third one you put at the beginning of your round so you know where to start the next round!

[@jessn8700]

[@edwinab3123]

when watching on youtube, just after you have picked up all the stitches, you say that you begin with a Knit because you have just finished a pearl row. Don't understand that as when I pick up all the stitches as you show, my starting thread to knit is on the left side of my work and not the right side as yours is. Could you please explain, do you purl a row after picking all stitches up?

[@mzamombatha9410]

[@mzamombatha9410]

Edwina B i am still waiting for a reply please

[@irenewalraven6756]

Edwina B I had the same problem and came to the conclusion that i picked up my stitches with my wrong needle... you pick all the stitches up with 1 needle. including the stitches on your stitch holder. (first you pick up 16 stitches on 1 side, then you pick up the stitches on your stitch holder, and then pick up 16 stitches on the other side)

[@edwinab3123]

Irene Walraven thanks. However, do you do a purl row after picking up all the stitches as, like I said, my thread to "knit" is on the left side of my work and not the right side as your is and you say "you have just finished a purl row"

[@irenewalraven6756]

At the beginning when you knit round 1 and purl round 2. you have to end on a purl round (so finishing 1 purl round) did you do that? or did you finished on a knitting round? maybe thats the problem.. I didnt have to do a purl row. I just knitted... But i dont think it should be a problem if you purl a row first. But im no expert knitter so im not sure.

[@ndhernandez]

Can you maybe show how to sew the leg to the foot

[@luluwatsit6910]

This video doesnt mske sencse it says divide the stitches onto the needles so do i put 20 on each of my doulble sided needles #confused

[@iKNITS]

If you're using DPNs, then it's different for you. Are you following along with the written pattern? It will make it a lot easier for you if you do that :)

[@anacarpentiere1403]

Desculpas mas nao da para enterder como foi feito a bota e nem a trança, quantos pontos foram colocados e na separação e diminuição dos pontos, nao entendi, tem como mostrar melhor porque os escreditos em ingles nao entendo. Obrigado

[@ambertroyer7396]

FYI on the drops website, the graph should be read from right to left, bottom to top. And the loose leg starts the graph on the right side not the wrong side.

[@iKNITS]

Yup I talked about that in my video. Thanks!

[@MrZombietooth]

I'm confused about what to do after I pick up my stitches on each side, and off my stitch holder. How do I begin in the round again? my working yarn is on the other side of the 11 stitches. I don't know if that makes sense. lol

[@iKNITS]

You have to make sure that when you pick up all your stitches, that the last stitch you pick up will be right where the start of your round is. Does that help?

[@samanthafox5192]

Do you have a pattern written for loom knitting?
