My Birthday Slippers 2009


You're probably wondering why I'm posting about wool slippers from my October Birthday 2009. They were knit for me by my friend...Kathy Blake-Parker. When she gave them to me they were the laugh of the evening as they were about 12 inches long. Mary thought they were the funniest thing. Long story short, they needed to be felted and got lost in my house. I found them again this Christmas and Kathy took them home to felt. I got them back the other night, just in time for the snow that was predicted.

I live in a tiny rental cottage that sits on cinder blocks....my floors are cold. What better gift than a warm, fuzzy pair of slippers...knit with love by a dear friend even though it did take over a year to get them on my feet?

Wishing you warm feet....
Barb

It took that long to felt them because you have such dainty feet :-) Glad they finally fit and you are happy with them :-) Easy to make things for friends like you :-) Warm fuzzies! :-)
