Slippers of one's own.... finally

Yes, during this past stressful couple of weeks...

I was fidgety.. and decided to felt a pair of the clogs for moi.

They are mostly a deep burgundy colour...with heather green soles and edges ...so it's interesting that each photo looks very different from the one previous... as the flash bounced off the dark walls of the evening...against the various other colours surrounding the clogs..

Here they are freshly agitated and soapy..

Next, rinsed off with clean water then gently blotted, dry on a towel

Next, stuffed with bags and slow dried... over 2 days..

Almost cooked...and much lighter to lift..

Omigosh these are sooooo funny and so beautiful too...I love the colours. What yarn do you use. Are the slippers knit in one piece? Short rows?
