Can someone please help me....I am relatively new to knitting and am confused by "Now you split the top into two. K8 cast off. knit 4, k8." Do I knit 8, then cast off one? then I'm only left with 9 so cannot knit 4, then knit 8...... really confused about this part and cannot find anything on the web to explain.....
the slippers look really cool , but the time it says is not true it says it takes less than 30 mins it takes you about an hour to make the sole
The slippers are adorable. I only finished them by using common sense. The directions made no sense at all - for example - "repeat these 4 rows..." when there were only 3 rows. Another example is when making the top the instructions say, "work as for top..." Well, duh, this is the top. The instructions get a 1 star only. Very, very poor, and I have been knitting for over 30 years. A beginner would have quit immediately.
This pattern is very unclear. I've been knitting for a while and still can't understand it. More pictures would be nice too.
