Keep your feet warm with these adorable little sheep slippers! The lumpy sheep appearance is created with bobbles, and the slippers are felted adding extra durability. These would be a perfect project for a beginner to felting!

Sizing
There is very little sizing required while knitting this pattern! The slipper knits up large, but at the end is felted down to size. Smaller feet will require more felting, larger feet will require less felting to obtain proper size.
One children’s size is provided, and one adult size.

The pre-felt circumference is 7.5”/19cm(11“/28cm). The pre-felt length of the slippers is about 8.5”/21.5cm (12”/30.5cm), and they can be shrunk up to 3”/7.5cm (4”/10cm) shorter than the pre-felt length.

Yarn
◦150-200 m (165-220 yards) bulky-weight 100% WOOL
You MUST use pure wool (no superwash) or the slippers will not felt properly!
