slippers

I've spent today and yesterday afternoon knitting this pair of slippers. I do have a pair of slippers, but they aren't the sort you can cuddle up next to the fire in, and these are. The pattern I used is Amy March's Slippers by Tiny Owl Knits. Since these are knit toe-up and have a turned heel, don't they technically count as my first pair of toe-up socks? 

I had a bit of trouble following the instructions for the heel, but it turned out okay in the end. I was going to tie the bow with lace as the pattern suggests but decided I prefer the little pink bows. I also used the cast on she puts in the pattern. 

I used Red Heart Super Savers held double throughout.
