I picked up a thickly felted woollen red jumper at the local Salvation army recently and I thought I'd have a go with that. I am quite pleased with how they turned out (although nothing like the house shoes I was loaned), they certainly keep my feet warm. If I made a second pair I'd make them quite a bit smaller, due to the slight stretch of the felted wool they are a tiny bit loose. I crocheted around the edge of them with some matching crochet cotton to finish them off.
I've just realised that I've past my two year blogging anniversary so to celebrate I'll do a little giveaway on Monday, so do check back.
Have a happy weekend! I'm hoping for a little less rain.
they are cute! I am in the middle of crocheting some slippers for me- have finished the first one but its a little big so going to have to undo a few rows i think!
ReplyDeletethey are lovely... really like the crochet finished edge :)
