Blog 5: My handmade sock loom and slippers :)

My cute comfy slippers



I am back again with my cute comfy slippers and Here is the story of them…




I was looking for a small loom for a while 


I made online searches, watched videos to learn their brand etc… how many pegs they have, what size they are …

And couldn’t fine one for the sock sizeso decided to make my own one.


 

My brother in law and I, with my new rotary tool cut the wood piece and hammered 20 nails

Radius between nails is 10.5 cm (my foot is thin and long) 


If you have wide foot you may need to increase the radius just little bit and add 1 or 2 more nails

Secure the nails it with strong glue

This is how I made them..



LOOM KNITTING


You need to know the basics in loom knitting and then it is fairly easy. 


Make 3 rows of knitting then leave a split (CW and CCW knitting) up to the desired length


Then continue to knit to your foot length


Then knot the front part and sow the back heel part.

I used t-shirt stretchy yarn


When I make new ones I will add them here. With thick and fluffy ones it can be easier and prettier








Ask me if you have any questions
