Wookie Slippers
These instructions cover both how to
make these slippers at, theoretically,
any size, and how I made the pair for
my dad. He wears a size 13 shoe, I
think. His feet are 11” long and 5”
across, approximately. The slippers are
so named because I thought the
Lamb’s Pride Bulky I used to make
them looked like a Wookie after felting.
Yarn: Lamb’s Pride Bulky, or any bulky-
weight feltable yarn. I worked in two
colors, but used less than two skeins
total.
Needles: Size 13 dpns and 24-inch
circular needles.
You also need: Two colors of stitch
markers (A and B), zippered pillowcase for felting, clothes washer and dryer.
Gauge:
Unfelted, in stockinette stitch: 3 stitches/inch and 11 rows to 3 inches.
A gauge swatch of 20 stitches and 28 rows shrunk down to 6” wide and 5.5” tall.
The website that previously hosted this has dropped all of my old patterns. They are currently unavailable, but I may reissue them at another time.
