Knitted slippers for felting

I finished knitting these slippers for my HB. There are 4 pieces to make two double-layered slippers. Next step is to felt them.

The thing about fulling/felting knitted things is that you have to start out with a thing that is loose and floopy and huge. Here they are with my hand for some scale.

I have another pair of slippers to knit and felt, so I am going to set these ones aside until later, when I can throw them all in the washing machine together.

The pattern is trim clogs from The Knitted Slipper Book. My Ravelry project for these with yarn info, etc is here.

These are going to look great! I can't believe how they change with the felting!
