REWRITTEN CABLE SLIPPERS PATTERN
Sunday, November 09, 2014Remember these bad boys? Click here for the yarn I used:
A TON of you have been asking me so many questions on how to make these cable slippers because the pattern is very hard to understand and makes it extremely challenging to follow along smoothly while knitting. I don't know about you, but when I knit, I want it to be a relaxing experience. I would compare it to as if I were doing yoga. I don't want to have a hernia because I am trying to understand what the heck the pattern is trying to say!!! SO, alas, I have rewritten the pattern for DROPS. You are welcome DROPS Design! haha okay anyway, Here it is. Click here to follow along with me: HOW TO KNIT CABLE SLIPPERS

ALSO! I have told you guys that I am NOT an expert on knitting, I just love to do it, and I also love to teach and edit videos, so I do make mistakes! Yes, it is hard to believe that I am not perfect. #SARCASM. This was my first pattern that has a chart to follow. I thought, why read a chart? It is very confusing and I am not used to reading one so I'm just going to write it out. I rewrote it on this blog post and I showed you how to do it in my video tutorial. Now that I am more experienced and have made other patterns with charts, I have realized that I made the loose leg the wrong way. You are supposed to read charts starting from the bottom right hand corner, going to the left. I started at the top left hand corner, going to the right. Wouldn't that be easy since that's how we read, right?! I am sorry for that mistake, but guess what? My slippers look perfect! It ends up being the same thing! So you can still follow along with me on how I did it in my video, or you can do it the right way.
Here is the video if you want to follow along with me!
