Slippers gone bad!!!!

[smokeyp81]

I love this pattern from Garnstudio. While really easy to make, my version didn't come out very good! LOL!!

 

See for yourself!

 

 

 

I haven't trimmed any of my ends, so that does make them look bad, but there are way too many holes for my liking!

 

Actually, as I look at these pictures, they really don't look too bad, but in person, they are not so good! I don't think there is any saving these slippers. What a waste of good wool!

maybe if it wont bother wear a light pair of socks underneath...i really dont like it when i put all my hard work and precious yarn into a project and it doesnt turn out good. maybe you could give them as a gift? you know what they say...one persons trash is someone elses treasure...

They don't look so bad to me as a matter of fact they look nice. A Heather Original good job!

These will be good when you just want warm feet.

I think they look pretty good.

 

Maybe just wear socks to match and then you won't be able to tell too much. Match the last round/boarder.

I saw that pattern and didn't like the way the slippers looked at all...until I saw yours! You picked great colours.

Thanks for the nice comments everyone! These really are destined for the trash. The pictures do really make them look pretty good.

 

I have done a lot of felting and have for the most part had successes....I have never felted granny squares before....and I will never again. I like my felted items felted so you see no stitches. Granny squares being holey in general, just don't felt well. Plus, for some reason, I have a lot of holes where I sewed the squares together. Maybe it was the yarn. I usually use Paton's Classic Merino, this was a combination of 3 different types of wool.

 

Oh well, it was worth the try. I still do like the looks of the original on the pattern.
