About the Design
I’ve reworked this classic pattern in doubled Peace Fleece yarn. Peace Fleece is now a merino wool blend, which means it felts more easily than the doubled Bartlettyarns 2-ply used in the original pattern, and makes a softer, cozier fabric.

Work them in any of the lovely Peace Fleece heathers or tweeds, or mix 2 colors together for a marled effect.

The pattern is still available in 7 sizes, for all family members. And, of course, attach slipper bottoms if they are to be worn on slippery flooring.
