Step-by-Step Knitting Instructions: Crafting Your Cozy Masterpiece

With your materials ready, let's dive into the step-by-step knitting instructions:

Casting On: Establishing the Foundation

Using your size 4mm (US 6) knitting needles, cast on 60 stitches.
Join the stitches in the round, being careful not to twist them.

Knitting the Ribbed Cuff: A Touch of Texture

Knit 2, purl 2 rib for 12 rounds or until the cuff measures approximately 6 inches.

Creating the Striped Pattern: A Symphony of Colors

Begin the striped pattern by knitting 1 round in Saffron 8ply yarn color A.
Repeat the following sequence for 6 rounds:
- Knit 1 round in Saffron 8ply yarn color B.
- Knit 1 round in Saffron 8ply yarn color C.
- Knit 1 round in Saffron 8ply yarn color D.
- Knit 1 round in Saffron 8ply yarn color E.
- Knit 1 round in Saffron 8ply yarn color F.
Repeat steps 4 and 5 until the striped pattern measures approximately 6 inches.

Forming the Heel: A Secure and Comfortable Fit

Divide the stitches into two equal parts of 30 stitches each, placing a marker to indicate the division.
Knit the first 15 stitches, then turn your work.
Slip the first stitch purlwise, knit the next 14 stitches, then turn your work.
Repeat steps 12 and 13 until there are 6 stitches remaining on the left-hand needle.
Bind off the remaining 6 stitches.
Repeat steps 11-15 for the other half of the stitches.

Knitting the Gusset: Shaping the Sock

With the right-side facing, pick up and knit 10 stitches along the side of the heel flap.
Knit across the 10 stitches of the heel flap.
Pick up and knit 10 stitches along the other side of the heel flap.
Continue knitting in the round until the gusset measures approximately 2 inches.

Knitting the Foot: The Foundation of Your Slipper Socks

Continue knitting in the round until the foot measures approximately 7 inches or desired length.

Decreasing the Toe: Shaping the Final Form

Divide the stitches into 4 equal parts of 15 stitches each, placing a marker at each division.
Knit to the first marker, then knit 2 together, knit 13, repeat this sequence to the end of the round.
Repeat round 23 until there are 12 stitches remaining on each needle.
Knit 2 together all around.
Repeat round 25 until there are 8 stitches remaining.
