Note: This pattern has been totally overhauled in 2023 - tech edited and test knit to make it error free & easy to follow. I apologize for my first effort. Anyone who bought that pattern has been sent a copy of the new one.

A fun twist on traditional Canadian maritime thrum, these slipper socks are filled with soft cozy thrum fleece. Perfect for anyone who suffers from icy tootsies!

These slipper socks are knit top down featuring a heel flap and turned heel. A honeycomb cables are filled with thrum bobbles in the centre.

There is a video tutorial link to short row heels and how to thrum included in the pattern.

These slippers were designed with Fleece Artist Chinook yarn & merino sliver roving for thrumming. You can purchase a Fleece Artist Kit (which includes yarn, roving, and a link download this pattern) on their website: www.fleeceartist.com
