felted slippers

I am in love with these slippers. I used the pattern by Melynda Bernardi Designs called French Press Felted Slippers (found on Ravelry). The pattern was simple: just increases, decreases, and lots of seaming. I was a bit intimidated by the felting process since I had never done this before... at least on purpose (heh heh).

As it turns out - felting is simple and way too much fun. After skeptically dropping 14" long slippers into the hot water, I was practically squealing with delight when five minutes later - I pulled out normal sized slippers; it was magical and reminded me of Shrinky Dinks!

The hardest part of the project was waiting for the slippers to dry. They are the coziest!
