The best part about a gifted teacher is that a student truly feels like they can do anything after learning in her classroom! This is how I feel when I watch your videos. Thank you so much for your amazing content!
What a kind comment ❤️ I hope I can lead you successfully through this pattern!
samosas
Totally agreed!
pls make more knitting videos! youre the only one i can follow since you do it step by step with CLEAR instructions. PLEASE make more!! i actually watched them so many times as im knitting !
Can I just say thank you so much. You are one of the most amazing teachers and you seem like a truely amazing person. Your videos are out of this world and to anyone reading this, buy her PDFs!! They are amazing and you not only are supporting her channel, but buying something you will use for ever!
Thank you for your kind comment! You made my day! ❤️
I can just about knit a scarf in garter stitch, but this video has given me the confidence to try something harder! This tutorial is crystal clear and looks so easy to follow, and I can't wait to have cosy toes. I just have to decide which colour.
You are the consummate communicator who can teach well. Many thanks.
New content from you is the greatest gift of all!
Quality is impeccable and your teaching skills are unmatched. Thank you for your time and effort!
Thank you for your kind words! 🤗
Thank you for a great tutorial. You have given me the confidence to try something new.
I've only just started to learn how to knit, so have watched an awful lot of tutorials recently, and I am SO happy to have found your channel. There is just something special about the way you teach and demonstrate that just makes things 'click'. You have ended so many of my frustrations. Thank you!
That’s so nice to hear! I’m happy to be part of your knitting journey!
Thank you so much for making this pattern available and for make such a clear, easy to follow video. I've been wanting to knit this kind of slipper for a long time. I will look forward to more projects from you in the future!
Thank you so much. I love this project due to your clear instructions. I made these slippers in super chunky yarn with 15 mm needles and crochet hook and adjusted your pattern a smidge to allow for this. I continued crocheting along the opening and turned the slippers into boots. So happy.
Devina, Your videos are THE BEST. Just started knitting and could t have done it without your tutorials and trust me I’ve checked out dozens…..and dozens. I’ve so far made a hat and scarf from your walk through tutorials and they turned out amazing! Thank you for such great quality videos, look forward to many more. Could you do one for socks or do you have a tutorial recommendation? ☺️
Thanks so much for your kind comment! I don't have a sock recommendation unfortunately!
Great video and great pictures. Thanks
Wow this is going to save my so much on Christmas presents this year
What a great video! It makes the whole process non-overwhelming and really doable. Thank you!
I just finished these tonight for my sister in law for Christmas! I only knew how to basic knit, and just two weeks ago taught myself how to purl! Your clear instructions made this novice confident, and they turned out so cute! Thank you! You're an amazing teacher!
So happy to hear that! 🙌 enjoy the slippers. I’m literally wearing mine right now and i love them so much!
So easy but so smart. Bravo young lady..👏👏👏
Love this Devina, especially attaching the leather sole at the end so we don’t fall and slip on hardwood floor! 🙂 And very nice tutorial on seaming and which stitch to pick up for invisible effect!! I’m currently making your fingerless mittens right now and I’ll be making this next! 🥰 Thanks for sharing! 💜
Devina, I am SO excited to see this video. I made your slouchy hat and get compliments everytime I wear it. I just made 2 pair of slipper socks (long version) for my granddaughter and her husband. NOW my two 7 year old granddaughters want a pair, but one of them wants the footsie version like this one. Thank you so much for posting. LOVE your tutorials! 😍
So glad to see you post again!! You're my favourite knitting teacher ever 💕💕
Just finished the first slipper today! didnt add the poms to save yarn but it still turned out GREAT.
With your video, I made my very firet pair of slippers. I'm a complete beginner at knitting, and your instructions were very clear and easy to follow. Thank you! 🙏
Well done! 👏👏👏
Arghh I love this video. The slippers are so cute and thank you for your wonderful instructions. I've been wanting to try something not flat for ages but have always been intimidated by trying to read patterns so thanks so much :) cant wait to make slippers for my little boy.
Thanks, Devina! I was waiting for this video for sooooooo long! 😀
You are awesome! Seriously Awesome! Your teaching is right on … clear, comfortable, and fun. Thank you so much. The time you take to teach and the repetitiveness is just right. Too many, go too fast, and you can’t keep up. Yours is just right. Waaay to go! I will follow you to the end of time! Thanks again. The slippers are awesome and…I learned to read instructions! ❤️👏👏❤️
Thank you for your kind words! You made my day 🤗
What a great tutorial! Thank you!
As a crocheter, I have to say those are nice crochet stitches for a non crocheter. Thank you for such an excellent tutorial as well as the written pattern so we can improve our pattern reading skills. I will be casting these on ASAP.
Thank you! I’m so glad you think the single crochets looks decent 😅
Wow! You made it look so easy an fun! I haven't knitted anything past a basic stitch before! I can't wait to try this! I may watch it again to make sure I got the sizes right! I got one of those hooks, while going through my mom's things after she past in 2020. The hook actually belonged to my grandmother! I am so excited to learn how to use it! An to knit from a hook she once used! Thank you for the video!
Your videos helped me get into knitting, when i tell people i learned from RUclips just in a span of a year they get surprised
Thank you davina 💙
So happy to hear that!! 🤗
Your videos are wonderful. I enjoy them all. Thank you so much.
Aww thanks for your lovely comment
Even if I don’t make all the projects from the videos, I like watching them all because I always learn how to do something new I might need to know in the future. Thank you!
Aww thanks for your comment! 🤗
Thanks and thanks that is the best gift for the the cold winter .thanks
Davina, i tried to learn to knit from a friend and she was not the best teacher. Your videos were so clear and perfect I learned everything I needed to know from you. I’m going to try these slippers!!!
I'm the opposite- a crocheter new to knitting. This looks like an awesome project (with great instruction)! And yes, it is definitely called 'yarn over' 😄
I made my first scarf thanks to u, after tons of tutorials that i didn't understand, ill try this now 🥺
Instructions are explained so clearly, love you , you are the best teacher, who makes best students too, so proud of you dear,stay blessed
Wow, thank you! It’s a total pleasure teaching!
KFB finally makes sense to me!! Thanks 🙌
Oh my God! Look so warmm, nice i will love to have one.
You are such a good and dynamic teacher that i would buy from you a video tutorial on knitting a sweater..
So cute! I think it would look really cute to do the crochet edging in the pom pom color for a little contrast color pop!
I love your slipper video. It’s so easy to follow and I like how you did the smile and frown thing to help with seaming. I’m currently in the process of making a pair of slippers for my mom
Excellent! I hope she loves it 🥰
Hey Davina girl!!!!! It's Kim! So glad to see your latest vid, those slippers are too cutesy!!! And I'm impressed that you're crocheting! You know I've been a crocheter for many years before I learned to knit and yes, it's called a yarn over! And you did awesome with your single crochets!! Great job girl!
Kim! It’s such a joy seeing you here in the comments! I’m glad I get your approval for my single crochet 🙈 I feel like I didn’t do a great job explaining them! I should have asked you for help!
@@sheepandstitch You are so sweet Davina! Yes, plz feel free to reach out to me about crocheting, if I don't know the answer, I'll find it for you! lol
Great job 👏👏
Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for this brilliant tutorial
You’re very welcome!
You are the queen of the KFB demo! Thank you 💕 any chance you can demo a simple pattern for a dog sweater?
Devina i am your big fan! Going to start this project today . I have already tried hairband and scarf from your videos. They turned out amazing
You are JUST IN TIME!!! I wanted to knit slippers as gifts, so I’ve been searching for patterns. Your videos have reliably taken me from rank beginner to adventurous beginner, and I haven’t had as much luck with others. I’m thrilled to be able to use your pattern! Thank you.
I’m so happy I’ve played a part in your knitting journey! 🤗 hope you love these slippers!
I love this
Yay thank you I made it and it’s amazing
Wow! That was fast! Glad you like them!!
Love this slippers am going to make it for sure watching from Jamaica
Thanks for watching! 🤗
Thank you so much for this video! I've only been making scarves with garter stitch. I didn't feel confident following or reading patterns but this video helped me understand them a lot better! I'm going to make these slippers for my next project
Awesome! I hope they turn out well for you!
Omg these are so amazing so cute your videos are so great I love them
I know right?! Not to toot my own horn or anything 😆 but I love this pattern so much!
@@sheepandstitch omg so happy u replied and true this pattern is so good u need to toot your own horn
I can't wait to have some more time and money to make this project!! :D
Any plans to show us how to knit socks? 😊
Am going to try making these
Made a pair of these with the ribbing add-on. Super cozy and squishy 😍. Definitely making a second pair
Awesome! I love the rib cuff! So cozy ☺️
This came at a perfect time!! My step moms mother knits these and they are what made me want to learn how to knit. Now that I have the basics I am ready to make these. You give the best instruction and demonstration of everywhere I've seen.
How would I add an ankle cuff to these to make them come up higher?
those look soo worm I'm going to try this
Thank you so much! I made my first slippers with this tutorial and gifted them today. They turned out really cute and are the perfect Christmas present! ♥
Love to hear it! They make such great gifts!
Hi! I was wondering what size you made them in (Child, Adult Small and Adult Large) and the person's shoe size? I'm trying to estimate which size I should make based on knowing someone's shoe size. Thank you!
@@hananpatel1094 The slippers pictured are Adult Small. The person wearing them has a US 7.5 shoe size, but when you knit the slippers you can customise the length of the slipper. Adult Large is good for men who have a larger sole size
Good to see you again, Davina! You’ve been missed. ☺️. Thank you for this slipper pattern. I’ve been needing a pair of slippers and I’d love to make some sparkly ones for Christmas! Could this pattern also work in reverse garter stitch?
I hope you are well! 😁
I absolutely LOVE your videos. You are SO good at explaining things. Can you please do a tutorial on how to make crochet flowers?. I’ve always wanted to learn how to do that!. It would be perfect with Spring around the corner.
She's a beginner crocheter herself!
I can't wait to make these! I'm not understanding the gague for these though. In your gague video, you say there should be a stitch count and a row count. But I don't see how many rows should be in my 4"? Thanks for this tutorial!
Hi.. teacher ❤️❤️ you are the bestest ❤️❤️.. first of all thank you for your videos.. i can make my deities hat and muffler..plz teaches us how to knit sweater... Plz plz... 🙏🙏
I love this made myself a green blue slipper looks so cute but i ran out of the same color yarn, any suggestions?
Thanks
Thank you so much 🤗
Can we do these in knit stitch and are all the instructions the same (apart from the sewing together of course!) Thanks in advance x
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi there. So so good, I love my slippers and I've learned a lot too (love the smiles and frowns)!! Is there any chance you suggest stitch numbers to make them for little babies, they'd make great booties?? 🙏🙏🙏💖
Very instructive video this is amazing! I've managed one slipper and on my second now but for some reason everytime I do the decrease row 5 I end up with 9 stitched instead if 10 for child size and I've got no clue where I'm going wrong as I follow video/instructions exactly for child size. Any ideas? Thanks!
hi its geni
Would you be able to use a mattress stitch instead of going into the purl bumps?
What if i use thin wool ? Then also i have to follow similar stitching times as mentioned for adult large ?
I will tray that :) thanks for the video. Is just super cute 😍
I just don't get how are you guys able to knit like that... holding the yarn looks so uncomfortable 😐
👍
Hi there! I am confused about the gauge because it doesn't mention the rows. Can you please explain? Thank you.
Hi, thanks for pattern and video. I'm only a very basic knitter but with your clear instructions I am going to give these a go. They look very cosy. In Australia our wool is in ply. From the info online it looks like super chunky yarn is equivalent to 14 ply. The only 14 ply available where I live is 150gram ball. It is fairly expensive. Do you think one 150g ball would be enough for a women's pair of slippers? Thanks for your advice, Judy
Just wanted to add that there are several options available here for 12 ply yarn which from googling is equivalent to chunky yarn in US, but I guess this would throw the size off if I used the slightly smaller yarn option? 😊
Is it possible to follow this pattern with single crochet all the way through?
I've got 8mm needles, how would I go about resizing? I'm still a n00b
Hi! I just started working these and I have a question. For me personally I have a great distaste for the way finished garter stitch looks, and I prefer stockinette, is it possible to do this in stockinette instead?
Can you follow this pattern with double knitting fingering yarn as well? Answer is much appreciated as I will buy the pattern if so! Many thanks :)
You won’t get the same gauge using fingering yarn. If you’re committed to the yarn then you’ll need to do some math to make the gauge fit
I so enjoyed this tutorial and the DARLING slippers. I made these slippers out of Lion Brand Wool Ease and are so cute! However, they have gotten holes in them after wearing for only a couple of months! Can anyone suggest another yarn that would withstand the wear and tear of slippers? I'm so bummed as the slippers are so cute. I don't mind paying more money for a better quality yarn! I hope someone can help me.
You can consider sewing a leather or suede sole to the bottom of the slipper. This would also help to make them non-slip
@@sheepandstitch OK That's a great idea! i just love them and want to make them work!
Great tutorial ur by far my favorite, but plz move the instructions to the top as it's blocking the knitting view most of the time
I have small thin needles, to do things like this would it be better for longer and thicker needles
Best follow what she says exactly.
@@agemoth she didn’t really say what needles had to be used, she just said what she was comfortable with
I’m new to knitting and followed all the directions correctly in this video for a child size and used the same yarn, but it turned out REALLY bulky and awkward looking. Like they seemed way too tall and way too round, it really didn’t look like the shape of a foot at all lol. Does anyone know what might have gone wrong for me?
Is there an alternative to a crochet boarder? Is there a way to do it by knitting instead?
You can always leave the slipper border-less if you like. Another knitted option is to do an i-cord around the foot opening
Blanket stitch with a tapestry needle may look cute!
just confirming, 10mm yarn with 6mm needles? To make the stitches closer?
Yup! We want a denser fabric so that’s why 6mm needles are used
@@sheepandstitch thanks for quick reply! :)
Speaking of gauge , i have super chunky yarn but i need 9 mm needles in order to have gauge as your pattern call, 11 sts / 4 inch. If I used 6 mm needles I end up with 14 sts / inch. Is it better to use 9 mm needles to get the same gauge?
@@pamelabarus2742 I would say, any needle that allows you to get gauge should work
@@ThiagoNuic thanks you❤️
when i do the kfb i always have 3 stitchs on my needle what's the mistake i did??
Hmm if you’re knitting into the back once you’ll have two stitches (one stitch is added). Count your stitches before making the kfb to make sure you’re only adding one stitch after the kfb
@@sheepandstitch thank you ❤
Hey
Can you pls pls pls post more videos as I can't find another channel like yours
Pls pls pls post videos
Is the crochet step necessary? I know it makes the finished product look better, but I keep messing up on that step. I'm hoping to just gift the unfinished slippers to my family but I don't want it to unravel on them because I skipped the crochet step.
The crochet edge is not necessary at all. The slipper won’t unravel without them.
Sorry where’s the link to pattern?
Hi it’s in the description of the video. If you’re watching this on the RUclips app, click the small arrow beside the video title. This will expand into the video description where you’ll find the url to the pattern
I've tried to download your pattern but having problems getting it... that's upsetting.. I'll have to go elsewhere.
Hi I’m sorry about that. You can email me at davina[at]sheepandstitch[dot]com and I can help you sort it out. Otherwise the free pattern is available on the website at this link: sheepandstitch.com/pattern/chunky-slipper-pattern-free-knitting-pattern-and-video
Why don't you just pick up the edge stitches of your heel triangle?
Hahaha I fukked up somewhere
Don't we all! 😂
This whole thing was so easy till she said we have to make 2 of them 😂
Haha I feel you 😅
sorry to see your adult large doesn't fit me so i guess i will skip this one since i have really big feet
Seriously? Gun. Wow
Holding out your fingers like holding a gun?? This can only be American. Cast on a stitch, gun, cast on a stitch 😟😥
Love everything else about your teaching though, I just have a gun phobia.
I’m not American 😅 the shape of my hand just looks like a gun. Sorry that bit upset you 😔
@@sheepandstitch your accent is American isn't it?
Very fast slow down 👎
