Once piece is the length you desire, ch 1 and 2sc in the upper side st and continue with 1 sc across to where you want the toe to end.

*The toe is stitched by "whip stitching with the start length of yarn down to where you want your toe to stop.*

Continue with sc around slipper till you've reached the end. 2 sc in the end stitch and fasten off leaving a long piece of yarn for whip stitching the heal.

* If you are making an adult slipper, you can sc around the slipper again or as many times as you desire to create a "Hi-Top" slipper.

* Add a bow to the toe by cutting ribbon and weaving in evenly, securely tie bow.

*To add the elastic strap, cut the length desired and sew with needle and thread on the insides of the slipper and secure.
