The slippers are now about half way there and just for you (!) I braved the wet slipper to take this progress pic.
I think another turn or two through the wash should do the trick. They really do feel thick already (you make a double sole) and I think they are going to turn out ok.
I was feeling a little glum over the weekend and slightly jealous of all the yarn fondling taking place at Woolfest, so I decided to cheer myself up with a little shopping. I have one parcel waiting for me at the post office and looky what else arrived today! I think it's the purdiest thing I ever did see.

Is that the Fibre Trends pattern ? I STILL haven't done mine :( I really have got a lot of kintting to catch up with :( and yet I keep buying yarn !!
