Worked back and forth on circular needle.
Cast on 39 sts (incl 1 edge st in each side) on circular needle size 6 mm with Snow. P 1 row (1st row = RS). K 1 row. Work next row as follows - from RS: 1 edge st in GARTER ST – see explanation above, A.1A (= 7 sts), A.1B (= 12 sts) over the next 24 sts, A.1C (= 6 sts), finish with 1 edge st in garter st. Work A.1 1 time vertically. REMEMBER THE KNITTING TENSION Then work 5 ridges - AT THE SAME TIME adjust no of sts to 37-39-41 sts on first row.

FOOT:
Then work back and forth on needle as follows: K 1 row (= RS). Next row (= WS): Knit the first 14-14-15 sts in garter st and slip them on a stitch holder, inc 1 st, P next 9-11-11 sts, inc 1 st, work the last 14-14-15 sts and slip these 14-14-15 sts on a stitch holder. Cut the yarn. Knit stocking st over the remaining 11-13-13 sts with 1 edge st I garter st until middle part measures 7-8½-10 cm, dec 1 edge st in each side from WS= 9-11-11 sts, slip these sts on 1 stitch holder. Cut the yarn. Knit in garter st back and forth until finished. Work next row like this (= RS): Knit sts from stitch holder and - AT THE SAME TIME knit up 12-14-16 sts on each side of middle piece inside 1 edge st = 61-67-73 sts. NOW MEASURE PIECE FROM HERE! Insert 1 marker mid front on toe. When piece measures 2 cm, K 2 tog on each side of marker. Repeat dec every other row – AT THE SAME TIME when piece measures 4-4-5 cm, K 2 tog inside 1 edge st in each side of piece, repeat dec in the side every other row (= 4 sts dec in total every other row). Cast off when piece measures 5-5-6 cm. Knit another slipper the same way.

ASSEMBLY:
Sew seams under foot in outer loops of edge sts to avoid a chunky seam. Sew tog mid back inside 1 edge st in each side.
