Grandma's Slippers...
I have finished knitting a pair of slippers for my grandmother. It is not the prettiest of wools, but she gave it to me and then asked for some back so she could knit up a pair of slippers for herself. So she is getting some back - in the form of a pair of already knitted slippers.
Patterns: Knitted Moccasin Slippers from Sue's Crochet and Knitting
Yarn: Some Black from my stash and Cleckheaton 8ply (85%wool, 15% Viscose) - from Grandmas Cupboard!
Needles: 5mm knitting needles
Mods: My Grandmother has large feet for a women so I added a few extra stitches and rows on. I do hope that they fit her
Cast on and Bind off: May 8th - 13th
Would you knit these again: Yes I will knit another pair of these
Other Comments: It is hard to take photos of one's feet - I hade to get Tim to help me out in the end - thanks Tim
