These slippers are quick and fun to make. So quick that they would make welcomed Christmas gifts. They are knit larger than needed then felted in the washing machine. This pattern is on ravelry.com and they are called "Duffers." So when you go on the ravelry site, type in the search pattern box: "Duffers." You need to have a 100% wool that will felt. This pair I knit with Cascade 220 worsted weight and two strands held together to make a bulky weight yarn, or just use a 100% bulky weight wool yarn to start with, in two complimentary or contrasting colors.
