Do any of your slippers have the little sticky dots or wiggly lines so they are safe on hard floors? I know in another life and other times, I would buy fabric with the grippy "stuff" for the soles of slippers. I haven't watched the whole video yet. Perhaps it is mentioned there.
Perfect idea to repurpose sweaters and to keep our toes toasty on cold Michigan days and nights.

I don't think the seam allowances are included in the patterns, because they're sizing seems off, so the next pair I'm adding seam allowances when I cut it, to see if that makes a difference. My mom usually wears a wide 7, and I made a men's 13 and it was still too snug, so I'm going to try again, but include seam allowances in.
