Thanks for putting this on here (you must be a mind reader)

I bought a pair of slippers like these today for £4-00  and I thought these should be easy enough to make but didn't know of a pattern for them and I thought when I go on the forum tonight i'll ask if anyone had a pattern

Thanks once again.

Thepattern was one I got off a web site. My friend wanted to knit some so I went searching on the google search engine. Just putting free knitting patterns in. There are a load of patterns if you are an avid knitter. Sadly I can no longer do any knitting. Hope you manage to make the slippers.
