As we were knitting this wee pair of adorably embellished Family Slippers, we were dreaming of knitting a grown-up pair for ourselves! We’ve added a cute pair of bunny ears and a fluffy, pom-pom tail to our easy slippers—a playful twist to this free pattern!

FINISHED SIZES
Small: 6½“/16.5cm length, fits up to 8½”/22cm foot; with 2 1/2”/6.5cm long ears.
Medium: 8”/20cm length, fits up to 10”/25cm foot; with 3 1/2”/9cm long ears.
Large: 9½“/24cm length, fits up to 11½”/29cm foot; with 3 1/2”/9cm long ears.
Note: These slippers actually fit a wide range of sizes but the more they stretch to fit, the better they stay on! If you’d like to adjust the length, the heel should be about two-thirds of the total length and the toe about one-third.
Directions given for small size; medium and large sizes in parentheses ( ).
