Sock It To Me Monday
Got a little bit done on the socks today, though not a lot. I think I’m going to just focus on these this week and see if I can’t get them done. Then I just have to plan what to start next!
Aaaand – Slippers!
In amongst other activity yesterday, I finally got these finished! They still have a little drying to do, but are basically done. Just for fun, I measured them before and after felting. I just did length because the width is kind of variable over the length of them. Before felting, they were around 15 inches… Continue reading Aaaand – Slippers!

Then it’s just straight on up the legs for 6 inches or until I get completely bored with it, then ribbing and done!… Continue reading Heeling Over
