Product Details

Have you ever thought, “You know what these feet need? More octopus.” If you have, or if you’re just thinking that now, then these are the slippers for you. Worked in stranded colourwork using fingering weight yarn, the Octopus Slippers pattern has instructions for 6 sizes, with a slightly different chart for each size. The pattern includes illustrated tutorials for working the crochet provisional cast on and German short rows, and for grafting the I-cord bind off closed, as well as links to tutorials for catching long floats in colourwork and for grafting the toe and heel closed. To make Octopus Slippers, you will need to know how to do 2-colour stranded colourwork in the round from charts.
