This winter, keep the whole family cozy and warm with handknit mukluks slipper socks using just one pattern!

Simply adjust your needle size (and yarn if making for the very littles) and make slippers in Youth (size S) Teen/Women (size M) and Men (size L) with additional tips for choosing yarn and needles to make them even smaller.

Pattern includes approximate yarn amounts for sizes S, M, and L using worsted weight yarn.

CAUTION: KNITTING MATH AHEAD!

Also included is a foot size/shoe size chart to help you customize the fit of the slipper for the wearer - this will require some calculating based on your gauge, but the pattern will walk you through it!

And finally, get a bonus set of instructions for sewing a simple fleece liner for your slippers!
