FO: Fuzzyfeet X 3
Three pairs of Fuzzyfeet in varying sizes for my nieces, who are also varying sizes. I just finished these up today, aside from weaving in ends. Since we go see them tomorrow, I’ll be weaving in ends tonight. Talk about squeezing it in under the wire!
As you can see, I didn’t bother with a jogless join to make the stripes line up. I figure since it’s on the sole, it won’t really matter.
Knitted on size 10 1/2 needles with Lamb’s Pride worsted from my stash. I have a big stash.
Since kids are notoriously picky about clothes, they’re also getting gift cards. We just also wanted them to have something to go under the tree besides a little envelope.
These will be given unfelted, along with a zippered pillowcase and instructions on how to felt them, so that the kids can have the fun of making their own slippers exactly the way they want.
I’m happy with how these turned out, and happy that I was able to do it entirely from my stash without purchasing any extra yarn.
Em is currently watching the Royal Ballet perform the Nutcracker on PBS. I’m just glad she’s getting to see the real thing instead of the Barbie version. Merry Christmas one and all.
Heh, I just literally this minute finished knitting a pair of Fireside Footies for my step-mother. The anklets on my pattern are a little smaller, which makes me wish I’d seen yours first, but it’s the same basic thing. The best part is getting to use the Noro, which is so beautifully colored but is all scratchy and can’t be used for anything but felting. She’s getting these because she liked the ones I made for my grandma last month (only people who comment on the knitted goods get the knitted goods!), and they’re so soft I may have to make a pair for myself.
The stripes on yours are super-cute! And nice idea to have them do the felting themselves.
