Slippers for Janice:


And for Mike (the lucky fiancé!):


The yarn was left over from the blanket, and the green was dyed this past week. Janice's are bigger (Ms. 11.5-size foot!), so that's why the top comes closer to the ankle on my (size 10) feet. I realised when making Janice's first slipper that I wouldn't have enough green to finish them, so I came up with this mix 'n match idea, which turns out to be rather cute for an engagement present. It's all the joy of his and hers without the pink. :)

I've been reading through my copy of Vogue Sewing and they seem to be under the impression that there are no female humans over 5'6". Their petites are shorter than that, Misses' patterns are for 5'4" to 5'6", and Women's patterns are for the same height but bulkier. WTF? Where's the love for the 5'10" women? I call discrimination.

Okay, on to the cuteness that resides in Chris's humble apartment.

The little itty bitty kitty:
