How cute -- and that pretty bright color will be a nice eye-opener for her in the mornings. :-)

[mercy7]

[mercy7]

that is a shame. i have made 2 pairs now both so different. my daughter is only size 2 i think and i had to sew them differently to pattern so they would fit her foot which measured 7-8" across the bottom of foot.

Those are really cute!

[mercy7]

shari putting them together was rather fun. first time i have had to do that

[DesertCrocheter]

Very cute, and great color. I'm going to have try my hand at these granny squares. Patty

[mercy7]

patty yes give it a go the squares are very easy to do the time is taken up getting them put together correctly. i adapted it for the feet as they were smaller so did not need the tie up part.

[Chatty]

I've made slippers similar to those and they're so easy and warm, especially if you wear them with socks. I usually used a couple of different colors in my squares just for variety.

 

Very bright color, sure to brighten anyone's morning

I love them! The color is beautiful! Here is a suggestion, if you wanted to you could use some "puffy paint" and put a design on the bottoms for a non-skid sole.

[mamaoso]

Very cute, Good job.

[mercy7]

mamaoso pam i was wondering what i could do to put something on the bottom of them for her and that sounds great. need to look for this puffy paint. i have never heard of putting paint on yarn before either so never knew about it

It's the type of paint in the little bottles that you can write on T-shirts and other things with. They will have it in most craft and hobby shops.

pam i will go look for some maybe wilkinson will have it in their shop.
