Up-cycled Booties

I'm keen to make a pair of slippers for Lenny using some stashed felt and leather, so I've been trawling around the net looking for, you guessed it, free patterns. There's a reasonable number out there, such as Tacky Living, Oh Helene and Stardust Shoes. I recently had a go at making up the latter pattern but I'm not completely happy with the result (I'll post a pix soon).
While on the net I stumbled across these cute slippers...






They're made from 'up-cycled' jerseys which have been felted. Next time I'm in the Sallies I'll have a better look at the knitwear and have a go at making some in all my spare time. May even make some for myself.
