Do you crochet? I make slippers using 2 strans of yarn, they are warm and if you use the right yarn they are also soft .
If slippery you spray the bottoms with hair spary.
Wouldn't wanna slip and fall.
You can make them using one stran of yarn, they would be cooler. I like bare footing but not cold feets.
:mrgreen:
I crochet all the time, but don't have a pattern for the slippers. I also knit and have made my own socks for a long time - great way to use up extra yard. Who cares if they don't match in your boots! I usually buy the knit slippers from the nursing home gift shop. I am not sure who makes them now, but Randy used to take care of the lady who started the knitting group at the home. At $3.00 per pair, why buy yarn?
