Before and After

This is before






This is after




This was my first time felting. I think the slippers turn out nice. They fit great. The pattern is a DROPS Design, Pattern no EE-279. 

This is a free pattern at www.GARNSTUDIO.com.

The yarn is DROPS ESKIMO MIX, Colour 21. This is 100% wool. I used 2 skeins of yarn for the woman's size small, using size 10 US needles.

I will definitely knit this again.

Gemini

The Gemini Tee is what I have been working on. So far, a real easy knit. I'm knitting size medium. I tried it on after the sleeves and it seem to fit well. I'm knitting with Knit Picks CotLin in Pomegranate on size size US 6 needles for the body and size US 5  for the lace and ribbing. I'm following the pattern exact, no mods. I can't wait to finish and be able to wear it.


This is not a very good picture. This color is actually a lot darker.
