Cool slippers!

[hlhorncastle]

Yay! My slippers arrived today!! Thank you so much! I love them all. The pink ones do fit a little bit better, I think, though I really like the style of the red ones, too. And the white one made me grin!! I was going to make a video and model them, but I've been out in the garden and am a mess. Tomorrow, maybe. Thanks so much again.

glad you got them...do you need me to make another pair like the red ones but smaller?

[FluorescentFossil]

glad you remember the knitting lessons we had,  did you use Hat Elastic or not??? Much softer and easier on the ankles.

[josette54]

Thanks mum for teaching me and all the other wonderful things you did for me..I always appreciate and love you...and yes I used hat elasitc..

[ClassicalStretch]

You're woman of many talents Josette! The quality of your work really shines through! Clearly you take a lot of pride in everything you do. Those slippers are works of art!

[josette54]

wo thanks I hardly showed them on here also..I forgot to show the underneath lol they are double knitted on the soul to strengthen it ..so she does not put holes in them like her others. and battle you are always full fo compliments for me thanks..I like it..

I have a dear friend in Baden-Baden who ships me a new pair of handcrafted slippers, much like yours, each Christmas. While very warm, one almost feels nearly barefoot. Best of both world's!

[josette54]

hmmm she is in Germany too..maybe she could send me her pattern..as this one is have to adjust lol.

[dicom]

I will look into that for you. She also makes some fantastic looking Christmas star like decorations. I ought to show those in a video sometime.

[hlhorncastle]

They look awesome, Josette! Thank you so much! I thank you, my cold feet thank you and yes, I do like red! Yay! Slippers!!! Thank you!

[josette54]

I hope they are ok. I am a perfectionsist and I did nto have the right needles or wool for the pattern. so I had to make adjustments...but they will keep your feet warm but might be a little big.

[josette54]

Heather I will post them out on monday and if I get time maybe make you some better ones to go with this pair..but cant promise lol..please let me know how they are and if too big whatever and I will improve on the next pair for you...love josette
