*The next step doubles your stitches. KFB in each st until you have
8 sts & then knit all sts once. KFB in each st again until you have 16
sts & then knit all sts once . Cut yarn leaving a 6-inch tail & use a
tapestry needle to tread yarn through all sts. Pull tight being sure to
close the hole. Rather than tying off, thread it down through the
bulb, down the shaft & out the other end &d tie it to Y1 to begin
working the other fingers.*
Round 5: place the rem 6 sts back onto your needles and KFB in
each st until you have 12 sts
Rounds 6-8: knit all sts. Now you are ready to start the fingers. You
will work the fingers in a similar way to the thumb.
Turn your work around so you that you are looking at the cast on edge. Tie the new working yarn Y2
to the tail left from the cast on. Using the outside loop of each cast on stitch, pick up 8 sts around the
edge.
Rounds 1-30: k240 (I like to count by hundreds). Close the arms by consoditating sts. You should now
have 4 sts on one needle.
Arm #1: turn and purl across (this is important if you want your thumbs to be in the right place.) Cut
yarn leaving enough that the sts don’t come undone, about 6 inches. Label as #1, this
will be important later.
Arm #2: Cut yarn leaving enough that the sts don’t come undone, about 6 inches. Label as #2, this
will be important later. Transfer both to one needle as you complete them with the purl side of the
final row facing you. This will be important when you attach them to the body.
Legs (make 2): With Y1 CO 18 sts. Do not turn you’ll be knitting in the round by working from the first
st you casted on.
Rounds 1-4: Knit all sts
(Leg #1: Skip ahead to Short Row Heel)
(Leg #2: knit 9 more stitches before continuing)
Short Row Heel work short rows back and forth on only 9 sts
Row 1: k9, turn,
Row 2: p7, turn,
Row 3: k6, turn,
Row 4: p5, turn,
Row 5: k4, turn,
Round 10: (k2tog tbl) x 12 leaving you with 12 sts (you can k2tog normally if
you choose, I just find it easier to k2tog tbl here). Cut yarn leaving a 6-inch tail. Using a
tapestry needle, slip each st onto the tail. Pull tight and thread it through all sts
a couple more times pulling tight each time to be sure to close the hole. Rather than
tying off, thread it down through the bulb, down through the shaft, out the other end
& tie it to Y1 to begin working other toes.*
