Slippers

:: Friday night

Browsed Ravelry

and found a free pattern for these ‘Duffers’ felted slippers.

I thought they might be the perfect slipper for me. Decide a grey pair would be nice.

:: Saturday morning

in the yarn shop buying the felting wool, ignore all grey and choose bright green and variegated.

:: Saturday afternoon

knit, knit and knit some more.

:: Saturday evening

anxiously wait for the washing machine to finish. What an exciting life I lead.

:: Sunday morning 

get up at the crack of dawn (thanks Betty!) and immediately put new slippers on. Ignore that they are still damp. Take copious photos of my feet and oldest pjamas.

:: rest of the day

make family admire my slippers. Am informed they don’t want a pair. Smile everytime I see my feet!

    You can’t beat a bit of felting, they are lovely and I bet they feel so soft!

    Makes me want to get into my yarn basket. I know I have some knitting/felting wool in there!
