Dorm Boots Slippers
"I see so many projects on Ravelry where the knitter has used my Crocodilly Mocs pattern and changed it up a bit with a ribbed cuff instead of the crocodile stitch. I thought I’d go ahead and write it up as a pattern for those not interested in a croc stitch cuff. This really is, in my opinion, a better 'dorm boot.' Made the same way as the traditional dorm boot, knit flat and seamed at the end. These knit up fairly fast - I can knit one slipper in 2 hours. Stitches used include, Knit, Purl, Sl-1, psso, k2tog, p2tog, k3tog, ssk."

I really like the look of these dorm boots. I always need these in the cold NYC winters. I don't wear shoes in the house so these would be perfect. They should work up nicely as well. Thank you.

It pays to know how to make different patterns for projects when like myself, design items to suit my personal taste.
