SOLE … With dark color, ch 26—4 chain sts to 1 inch—(small size, ch 22; large size, ch 30). In order to have a firm texture, entire sole is worked tightly. 1st rnd: 3 s c in 2nd ch from hook, s c in each of next 13 ch (small size, s c in next 11 ch; large size, s c in next 15 ch), d c in each of next 10 ch (small size, d c in next 8 ch; large size, d c in next 12 ch). Make 4 d c in last ch—Toe. Then work along opposite side of foundation chain, making d c in each of 10 ch (small size, d c in 8 ch; large size, d c in 12 ch), s c in each of 13 ch (small size, s c in 11 ch; large size, s c in 15 ch)—Heel. 2nd rnd: S c in each st around, increasing 2 s c evenly across Heel, and 5 s c evenly across Toe—to inc., work 2 s c in 1 s c. Repeat the last rnd 2 more times. Next rnd: Turn, and with wrong side facing, work sl st in each s c around. Fasten off.

UPPER1st rnd: Attach light color at center back, ch 3, d c in the back half of each s c of last s c-rnd. Join with sl st to top of ch-3. 2nd rnd: Ch 1, and working in both loops of each st, make s c in each st around, decreasing 2 sts evenly across Heel and 5 sts evenly across Toe—to dec., (in­sert hook in next st and draw loop through) twice; thread over and draw through all 3 loops on hook. 3rd rnd: Ch 3, d c in each st around, decreasing 7 sts as on last rnd—to dec., (thread over hook, draw up a loop in next st, thread over and draw through 2 loops) twice; thread over and draw through remaining 3 loops. Join. 4th rnd: Same as 2nd rnd. 5th rnd: S c in each st around, sl st in next st. Fasten off.
