Slippers
A little something to put a smile on your face. LOL I truly cracked up (that saying really dates me I know),when I first saw this no pattern slippers...every knitter and crocheter should get a kick out of this. Heck...even folks who don't knit or crochet should enjoy this. Just slip your foot in a big old ball/skein of yarn...and tie them.
*Disclaimer.........don't try this at home folks!
Laughing aside, slippers are always needed. They'reused by folks in shelters to get their feet out of cold wet socks and shoes...giving them a chance to dry things out. They're also appreciated by those living on the streets as they attempt to get warm or more comfortable or sponge out there socks. We have both knitted crocheted slipper patterns here on the blog just click on the slipper tat across the top of the page of click Here

Cute slippers. Bet they will keep my feet warm! LOL
ReplyDeleteI still haven't tried to make slippers. They are on my list of someday learn to do.
We all have those lists of things we want to make someday, don't we. Saw a man knitting the other day. He was knitting a beautiful sweater with the most involved cables I've ever seen.......geesh
DeleteThey are probably very cushiony on your feet but have to make sure the pussy cat doesn't grab the yarn:)
ReplyDeleteGood point about the kitty, they do love to play with yarn.
DeleteOh, I didn't think about the cats. They don't bother me (most of the time) while knitting, but if I wore yarn skeins on my feet, it might be a different story.
ReplyDeleteTrue true Sue
