Sizes
US women’s shoe size 5–6 (6.5–7.5, 8–9, 9.5–10.5, 11–12)
Materials
Yarn
-
200 (200, 250, 300, 350) yds of lace or fingering weight used doubled.
Note: You will need to use the yarn double for the body of the slipper and then single for the knot so a single, heavier weight yarn will not work. Each of these skeins will yield two pairs for sizes 5–6 and 6.5–7.5 size, and one pair for sizes 8–9, 9.5–10.5, and 11–12.
