Feeling Puckish
Once they saw Pamela Wynne's whimsical Elf Shoes pattern, each of my kids begged for a pair. I love this pattern! It's quick, fun, a great stash buster and the recipients are always thrilled.
IJK's Elf Shoes - Women's Size 10
The Lad's Elf Shoes - Men's Size 11 (Graciously Modeled by SKK while he was at work.)
SKK's Elf Shoes - Women's Size 10
Each pair only took two days, despite the rather amply sized feet that I was knitting for. I went stash diving for the yarn. It's amazing how much Cascade 220 I own in "elfish" colors. There's enough left for another pair or two. If I hadn't decided to cast on a last minute Christmas shawl for my SIL yesterday I'd make myself a pair.
Happy Holidays one and all!!!!
those are so cute! the kiddos are lucky :) your girls already wear size 10 shoes? they are going to get even taller!

Oh. My.
Those elf-feet are just so amazing.
I immediately have to go and knit myself and everyone else a pair. Good thing christmas-break is coming up...
Good thing I have a lot of Cascade 220 as well ;)
Have a great Christmas, Kirsten
