Let it Snow...Let it Snow...Let it Snow....















And so it did! A little too early for my liking, but at least I will have toasty toes!! Yes, the clogs are felted and turned out well. They are so yummy on my feet! Have started a pair of gray/pink ones for my daughter. Can't wait to see how they turn out! (They are knit with Paton's Wool (blue) and ANDES wool (not WOTA)).




I felted 3 bags yesterday as well. Two I can show you, one is a surprise bag for my mom! (Yes, she is my faithful blog reader who has now even left a comment!!) Once I send it to her, I will post a photo. It is very fun!

The first is the modified Vintage bag (with the balloon bag bottom). I just love this pattern. Can't make enough of them. Need to find a fun fabric for the lining and add the snap and it will be done!









This is one I just made up as I knit and am very happy with how it came out, especially the colors. It may accompany the 'fun surprise' bag in a package to my mom. I think the colors are perfect for her.

Oh I have this pattern! Just haven't had the time yet & here it is Fall already. Were they easy to knit? What yarn did you use?

I might knit these by November. Well I'm going to try anyway. They look so warm & cozy

The pattern takes some concentration (for counting) but if you follow it, it is not bad. Especially after the first one! I used Paton's wool for the sole and bumpers; and Andes wool for the body. They are addicting... I can't wait to finish my next pair!

Those look great! Is that the Fibertrends pattern?

You are truly the felting queen! Those clogs are adorable. I've got a pattern for some that I think I need to find and give it a try. =)

Great felts! I just love the look of the clogs. I don't like the look of that snow, though! hehe
