Slippers for my SP swap partner

[Tiga]

I decided to make slippers for her whole family, and these are what I made:

 

 

I used the Don's Slippers pattern from CPC, one strand of TLC in blue and one strand of TLC in a vari. blue. These make a nice, sturdy slipper.

 

 

These are also a free pattern from CPC for "Bunny Slippers". I made them with JoAnn Sensations Rainbow Classic, and used buttons for the face.

 

 

These are from a Drops design. I used Homespun in Corinthian. I love them so much, I'm going to have to make myself a pair!

 

I have more info on each project at Ravelry

The bottom ones are my favorite, but good job on all...they look so comfy!

oh my gosh you have been busy. They are all wonderful and comfy looking. I keep looking at dons slipper pattern for my husband, but I don't know if he will wear them. You've done a wonderful job and I love that your giving to the whole family!!!

My mother wants me to make Don's Slippers for her - I was worried they'd be stiff, but they aren't. I'm not sure if it's b/c I used TLC, which is a softer yarn, or if it's just the pattern.

 

I did make some modifications - I put a crab stitch around the edge of the opening, and I had to adjust it for size, but it's a pretty fast pattern. I think it only took me two nights to make them, once I figured out how to get the right size.

 

The bunny slippers took no time at all.

 

I think it took me less than a week to actually make all of them, once I figured out what I was doing, lol! I made another slipper for my swap partner first, but it was horrid, so I had to start over and try to find some good yarn to use and a better pattern (Baby Clouds doesn't make a good slipper, btw).
