The slippers for my aunt have been knitted. Two more to go. And felting.

Second pair done. Woo.

1 Dec
The unfelted slippers have just been sitting there, waiting. I thought I’d make some for me but honestly, I don’t really do ruffles. Mom and Grace wanted some, so they’ll get theirs for Christmas and I’ll use the yarn for mine for a more me-like pair of slippers.

They felted great in two hot cycles in my (front load) washer. I have some puff paint leftover from my dad’s slipper socks, so if that does well, I might use that for these bottoms.
