comfort

A few days back I sat down and managed to start and finish a whole project in a few hours. This never happens!

I was in need of a new pair of slippers for around the house (I simply can’t have bare feet on our freezing floors!) so I treated myself to some nice new ‘me’ yarn with some christmas gift money I had.

It is Drops Eskimo in blue/purple mix. I think it is a yummy yarn and I’m dying to felt with it!

The pattern is one of Garnstudios many freebies with a couple of very minor alterations. You can find the pattern I used here. It is wonderfully simple and super quick to whip up a pair.

They are also really comfortable, much more so than my previous granny square slippers 🙂 Winning all round!

I suppose the only slight downfall is that they can be a bit slip-slidey on our hardwood floors, if I’m not being careful and dashing about.

Hmmm… I think I’ll put up with it!!
