Felted Slippers


I am sure you are wondering why I am knitting when this is to be sewing month. Well I really didn't knit these this month but about.... umm two months ago. They have been sitting that long waited to felted. These were originally for me, but were pushed off into the "waiting to be finished" projects. Until I realized that my sisters birthday was coming up, and I knew that she wanted a pair, for I made my mom some and she was quite jealous :)
 So I quickly felted them, which is a little harder when you are making them smaller than your own feet.
 And I put this cute button on it!! It just makes it a bit cheery, and will help when the long, cold, rainy days come this winter!! :)
And there you have it. Though she will not need these for a few more months, they will be there waiting to be used when needed!!
Now back to sewing!! ~RebeccA.
P.S. I will eventually make myself a pair.... some day :)

  1. Are these slippers actually knitted? Jessica bought a pattern on Etsy that is identical but crocheted which I made for her some time ago. You can take a peek here. Anyway, I'm sure your sister will love them. :) Nice work!
