PÄTID SLIPPERS

This pattern is a play on its sister pattern, the Pätid Socks. Aleks’ grandmother Hilja collected many clippings of decorated slippers in her sketchbooks, and one that stood out was a certain botanical intarsia slipper with a leafy motif that decorated the instep. This toe-up slipper is embellished with Roosimine Estonian Inlay knitting. The sole is worked in Garter Stitch, and a folded rib cuff finishes the leg of the slipper.
