Use the Holdenboot Pattern to make a pair of 100% felted wool slippers by knitting in the round from the bottom up. The entire boot is knit and assembled before it is felted making the boot a single piece of fabric that is soft, warm and naturally water resistant. The adjustable strap ensures the slippers stay on baby’s foot, and the felted button ensures a safe and comfortable fit for day or nighttime wearing.
