I decided to make slip stitch knit belts for nieces because I loved mine so much! But the problem was the pattern is for an adult and too wide for 4 and 6-year-old girls. I needed to come up with a new knit belt pattern. You can find the adult version in Chick with Sticks. I decided to use the leftover yarn from when I knittedĀ wash cloths. It’s 100% cotton and I think worsted weight? Actually, I’m making the weight of the yarn up because I no longer have the labels for them. I’ll have to remember to keep them from now on.
Using US size 4 needles (3.50mm), I cast on 6 stitches.
Knit stitch the first 4 stitches
Bring the yarn forward
Slip stitch the last 2 stitches
Repeat until desired length, I usually go about 4-6 inches longer than waist size
Cast off.
I hope my nieces love them!
