knit n felt

My knitting needles have been beavering away on making these for Christmas gifts....




I've lost track of how many pairs I've made over the past few years and some people are on their second pair already.  I'm told that they are very comfie and warm, but I have yet to find out for myself.

What's that they say about a mechanic fixing everybody else's car and not his own?  Guess I'm like that mechanic!

Pattern is the felt clogs from Fibre Trend.

  9. These look very comfortable. I wear slippers all the time around here but with a rubber sole.

    Would these be slippy on the tile floors? I could use something else to knit besides the scarves for the Special Olympics. Getting scarved out.

    Hugs
