We knit these slippers at our Fall Knitting Retreats and realized they are a great project for a class. They start with a 2 color Turkish Cast On, which is really nice to get help with. After that, you move into 2 color knitting, which Diane always has tips for. The "plain color" that comes next is Twined Knitting, another great thing to learn.
You can use double pointed needles, or use a long circular and do the Magic Loop, yet another skill to learn.
They are knit with Sport Weight Yarn. We have also been successful with worsted and heavy worsted weight.
Diane can help you figure out which yarn and needles you want to use, and then walk you through all the tricky parts of this beautiful slipper.
This is not a good class for beginners. Sorry. If you are comfortable with 2 color knitting, casting on, binding off, knitting and purling, you will make it through this slipper.
