How to work the slippers in DROPS Children 27-19

In this DROPS video we show to work the “Lemon Jelly” slipper in DROPS Children 27-19. By working with smaller needles than you normally do for DROPS Snow, you get a firmer slipper. But remember the needle size in the pattern are only the recommended size. We use needle 4 in the video and working according to size 20/21 (the smallest size).

We have already cast on 24 stitches and show a bit of the 1st round which is knit and a bit of the 2nd round which is purled (= 1 GARTER STITCH). Work garter stitch until the piece measures 3 cm. Then the first 8 stitches of the round are kept on the needle and the remaining 16 stitches are put on 1 thread. Cast on 1 stitch at the beginning and 1 stitch at the end of the 8 stitches on the needle. Work garter stitch back and forth until the work measures 4 from where the stitches were put on 1 thread. Cast off 1 stitch in each side. Knit up 6 stitches in each side and put the stitches on the thread back on the needle. Put 1 marking thread in the middle of the front and 1 in the middle of the back. When the piece measures 2 from the marker threads, decrease 1 stitch on each side of the marker threads, decrease like this every other round until the piece measures 4 cm. Then cast off the remaining stitches and sew the seam under the foot in outer loops of edge stitch.
