Jen of DrawingsUnderTheTable had the great idea to turn an old sweater into a pair of slipper boots. Feel the warmth of your home and make some cute slippers, following the directions below.
You will need:
– old sweater;
– scissors;
– needle;
– yarn;
– pins;
– cardboard;
– pencil.
Directions: Draw the shape of your feet on the cardboard, then cut the pieces out. Place them on the body area of the sweater and cut out the pieces for soles. Stick your foot into the sweater’s sleeve through the opening at the wrist and check out the boot length. Snip around your foot. Take soles and connect them to the leg pieces using pins. Start sewing from the top (where the toes will be). Apply your technique of sewing or the one presented in the images: firstly, pass your needle through both layers of fabric, then pull the yarn through until only a small loop remains; after that, bring your needle back down through the loop and pull the yarn tight. Enjoy your slippers!
