MOD SLIPPERS – Designed on Giant Sea Clam Colorations ;-)

I did knit the original pattern for these slippers from the original pattern, HOWEVER – I can truthfully state that THESE SLIPPERS are MY OWN DESIGN because I reworked the original pattern to enlarge the slippers to fit a Size 8W & Size 10W women’s foot.

So, I am NOT “stealing” – and I am NOT lying: I reworked the original pattern to my specific design creations: ALL DESIGNERS USE someone else's basic foundation for thier 'original' work.

That said, I am posting the reworked pattern as I reworked it – if you make these slippers please GIVE CREDIT TO the original designer, as well as LINK BACK TO MY PAGE.

Thank you:

ORIGINAL SIZE 6-61/2W: Knit slipper exactly as written in the posted link above – I opted not to use the openwork increase; instead I just knit my slipper straight garter stitch increase. I like it better that way ;-)

I LIKE LOTS OF COLOR, so I patterned my slippers after the colorful giant sea clams. LOL It works for me and my designs …

Giant Sea Clam: green tridacna - TURQUOISE-LT ORANGE-SOFT NAVY-LIGHT GREEN-VARIGATED PINKS

Starting in the round ...

Ready to close bottom.

Bottom edges carefully closed to match ribs.

FINISHED!

MY MODIFICATIONS for enlargement – I just worked this particular slipper without working bold coloration into it because I was reworking the pattern and needed to pay close attention to the modification increases (https://jeastofeden.blogspot.com/2019/09/mod-paintbox-slippers-modified-tesha.html).
