  11. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I end with 72 stitches in the upper part of the bootie and 80 stitches in the sole. They should be the same to slip stitch into both, right?

    3. I altered the sole to work. I realized after that I had the instep upside down. That is why my stitch count was less.

  15. I too am having difficulties on the sides. I don’t find the instructions to be clear. Where should I begin round 1 of the sides? Do I turn the work around?

    1. You start the side where you attach the chain, ch 3 and continue with work on instep , do not turn, hope this is helpful
