added to keep the shoes on baby's little kicking toes. To do this, after you have joined the heel edges, pick up 4 stitches on each side of the seam, then cast on 16 stitches. Work back, and cast on another 16 stitches. Work 2 rows on these 40 stitches. Next row make a buttonhole, thus: K. 3, wool forward, K 2 together, K to end, Work 2 more rows, and cast cff. When making the second ankle strap, reverse the posi- tion of the buttonhole by knitting. to the 5th stitch before the end of the 3rd row, then doing the wool forward, K 2 together, K 3, s. explained before. Sew a tiny button on the opposite edge of each strap..
For a bigger pair of slippers, start by casting on 18 or 20 wool and No. 7 needles. Work 16 stitches, using double knitting rows of garter stitch, pick up 8 stitches down each side of the toe; and cast on 20 or 22 stitches for each side of the slipper. Then proceed as explained. When you have finished the 8 rows (or 10 if wanted deeper) for the sides, K 19, if you've cast on 20 stitches or 21 if you've cast on 22 stitches, K 2 together, and K 16 or 18, ac- cording to whether the toe has 18 or 20 stitches in the original cast on row. This sounds a bit complicated, but it isn't really. When once you have tried out the instructions, you will see how easy it is to adapt them.
