FINISHING

 For best results, use A and whip stitch for all seaming.

  1. Fold each upper lengthwise along cast-on edge and mark center for front of foot. With detachable markers or safety pins, attach front center of sole to the center marker of upper. Beginning at back center (heel) of sole, sew cast-on edge of upper to outer edge of sole. Sew back seam of boot slipper from base to top.

  2. Optional elastic: beginning at back of slipper, weave a length of elastic through stitches around top edge of boot slipper and pin the ends of the elastic together. Weave a second length of elastic 1–2” (2.5–5cm) below the first (just above the last decrease row) and pin the ends of the elastic together. Place slipper on foot. Adjust elastic lengths so that they fit comfortably. With sewing needle and thread, sew ends of elastic together. Repeat for other slipper. Weave in ends.
