Stars and Stripes and Slippers

It's here, it's here...the New Year, 2025!!

I know it might be early to start working on patriotic projects, but hey I was in the mood;)  My original stars and stripes design has been a popular one for me so I hope to have 8 pieced over the winter. These are the first two. These were started on Dec 30th 2024 and finished on January 1st. 



And to continue the blue theme is a pair of hand knit blue and gray slippers. I used a blue 4 ply with a gray sport weight yarn for these. It's fun to mix the colors and see how they come out. These are actually a size that fits me. The pattern is called Grandma's slippers found on Fave Crafts. I only knit on these a little each night as I am in no hurry, it's all for fun.


I started another pair with different yarns in a small size this time.  Lots of people are making plans for projects in 2025, my plan is very loose...do what I feel like and enjoy it!!

  2. Hi Vicki! I love both of your projects but those slippers look nice and toasty. We could use it around here - it is chilly! I love the idea of working on what you feel like. Happy New Year! ~smile~ Roseanne
