Fiber Trends Alpine Boots Pattern
Knit with worsted-weight yarn held double and designed to be felted to a very thick, very firm fabric, these boot slippers will keep feet warm and cozy. They feature double soles for extra comfort and longer wear.
The pattern includes instructions for the following sizes: Children's XS, S, M, L, and XL. These will fit foot lengths of approximately 5" (6", 7", 8", 9"). (On a personal note, I wear a women's size 8 shoe, and my foot is just under 9" long, so the largest children's size will fit an average woman's foot.)
