Quick and Easy Christmas Slippers
This is basically a knitted rectangle……folded in half …..gathered on one end……stitched on other end……..and stitched half way on the top leaving opening for foot to enter.
Used 2/17 acrylic. Passap e6000
50 needles on both beds 25 0 25 (for size 8-10 womens)
Cast on #2 …..ss 3
After cast on Locks Front =KX Back =N …….knit 110 rows SS4
transfer every other stitch to the needle next to it on both beds………placing empty needles NWP
knit 2 rows…….transfer back bed to front bed……knit 2 rows and take off machine with double strand of yarn……….pull tight to form toe…..fold in half……..from toe stitch close half way up, leaving enough room for the foot to enter…….stitch back edge(cast on edge) closed to make heal.
Make pompom or other decoration. This took me less than 30 mins
Note:
The pattern can be easily adapted to most anyones foot size…..I just measured the length of my foot and used that many needles -2 needles less
I have made these in various sizes using the same method of measuring and its worked very well each time.
The design possibilities of this slipper is limitless.......you can do stripes, patterns, tuck patterns.......almost anything......you can do pompoms or I cord to look like shoe laces......ribbon laces........let your imagination run wild.

ISO: Someone that has actually USED Journal Six software.
I have searched and searched.........but I cannot seem to find anyone that has used Journal 6 software for machine knitting..............Either that or ISO someone that can help me to understand HOW to stipple a photo to where it is able to be turned into a machine knit pattern. Ive tried Adobe photoshop elements 7........printshop 23......and the paintshop x3 trial version. I know people use paintshop........but for the life of me I cannot get it to do what I need to process photos for KM designs.
