if you are here you mostlikely followed the link on Ravelry. This is a free pattern. All I ask for in return, is that you will knit/crochet at least one pair (or a square) for LILY. So here is the pattern you are looking for.
Material: 1x50g ball Four Seasons Gruendl Lisa
1x set of DPNs Size 4.5mm (US size 7)
Gauge: 24sts x 32 rows = 4in stockinette stitch
Instructions:
CO 25 sts and work 8 rows st st.
Next row: knit 16 sts, turn.
Next row: purl 7 sts, turn. On 7 sts work 12 rows in st st. Break yarn.
With right side of work facing, rejoin yarn to the inside edge of the 9 sts and pick up and knit 5 sts along the side of the foot, knit across 7 sts on the needle, pick up and knit 5 sts along the other side of the foot and finally across the remaining 9 sts. (35sts total).
Work 5 rows of garter stitch.
Shaping the foot: Row 1: k2, k2tog, k11, k2tog, k1, k2tog, k11, k2tog, k2
Row 2 (and Row 4, Row 6): knit
Row 3: k2, k2tog, k9, k2tog, k1, k2tog, k9, k2tog, k2
Row 5: k2, k2tog, k7, k2tog, k1, k2tog, k9, k2tog, k2
Row 7: divide your stitches evenly on 2needles and work a
3needle bind off.
Weave in ends and sew up the back. Make another one.
They knit up really really fast. I think it only took me 30 min per bootee. This pattern came to be because I want to support LILY. Please read all about that in the previous post.
UPDATE: on august 28th, they
have now sent 1,292 blankets to the Syrian refugee children, that's over 32,000 squares in just 5 months!
