I finally finished off my Saturday Slippers. Here they are.
The pattern is by Make and Do Crew.
I made the first pair in a size 6, and was dissapointed to find that although the pattern said you could make this size with just one ball of Lion Brand Wool Ease Thick and Quick yarn, I actually ran out with 3 rows to go on the second slipper. So off I went to Wool Warehouse to purchase another, at which point I realised I would then end up with 9/10 of a ball that I would not know what to do with. So I added another to the basket, so I could make a second pair in a much larger size. Size 11.
I really love hiw these slippers have turned out. They are a brilliant quick project. I didnt much get along with the chevron embroidery bit though. I tried it several times but I just got fed up of it and decided they looked just as lovley without the decorations. Lovely! These will go on my christmas gift pile.
And with that, I am free of WIP’s. What to start next? Christmas is now less than 2 months away so I better get cracking on another gift!
🙂 Gotta love the necessity of buying more yarn to use up yarn you already have 🙂
