|
|
I totally forgot to add these. I made another pair of Fuzzy Feet for my Step Mum. She came to see us in our new house a few weeks ago & we haven't seen her since last year as she lives in Australia. The first thing she saw when she came in were my Fuzzy Feet that I made a few months ago & was absolutely amazed by them & loved them. So even though it's summer soon in Oz I had to make her a pair. I sent them packed up in a shoe box last Tuesday via airmail & her birthday is this coming Monday so I'm keeping everything crossed that they'll arrive in time.
I'm not putting them on my blog until she's received them so that I don't spoil the surprise.

Her feet are a UK 6.5 & I'm size 7 so I put them onto my feet quickly just to open them up & then filled them with clean white paper crushed up into small pieces. When they were dry I held them against mine & think they're a bit a small but I've included instructions on how to get them to the right size (30c wash & then wear them wet). I blocked them with two 60c washes in netting bags to stop our machine getting filled up with fluff. _________________ Cheers

I love these! I seem to recall I was rather taken with the others you made too. What yarn did you use?
