Jo Knits!

super fuzzies!

Yesterday was a GREAT mail day. I receive my first Elizabeth Zimmermann book ever. It was really cool because I received it in a trade I did with another fellow Canadian. Hello Kate! LOL! ;) Even my mom got into reading Knitting without tears! Maybe she'll take up knitting again and I can teach her how to make socks! teehee!

Well with one week late, I present to you my own pair of fuzzies! :) The dpn in the picture is twelve inches long, just to give you an idea of the size.

This afternoon while Lucas took his nap I went all excited down in the basement to start to magical phenomenon that is felting to me. :)

I eagerly sat besides the washing machine and check every five minutes on the dot to make sure my slippers weren't felting to small for my size 10 feet. LOL! Each time I check them, I'd measure carefully the lenght. After a LONG hour finally they got down to ten inches. There were almost dry after the spinning and trying them on was the high point of this experience. They are SO comfy to me. I can't believe how neat all this process has been to witness. Ever since I've put them on, they've stayed on my feet. I think I'm gonna sleep with them on tonight! LOL! ;)

Doesn't this look like the fuzziest of the fuzzy slippers? :)

I can't wait to start on another pair and share the magic of felting! :)

Notice the button under my weather pixie? I made that today, now I need to make my blog template match the button! LOL! Yes I am that quirie! ;) You are welcome to save the save and link to me once you upload it to your own space. Let's be friends and not steal from one another, ok? ;)

hugs,
