The Knit + Fold Slippers pattern by Hiromi Glover from Purl Soho is full of charm and surprises from beginning to end! Start by knitting a seemingly puzzling flat piece, then fold it into shape to reveal the most adorable, ingenious slippers imaginable. With cosy cuffs to keep your ankles warm and playful pom-poms for a whimsical touch, these slippers are as delightful as they are practical. Best of all, this pattern is completely free!
