Here is a pair of Pocket Book Slippers I made for my Mom-in-Love. The yarn is Knitpicks Swith which is 100% washable wool in Wisteria. Her favorite color is purple. To look at these while knitting and even when seamed you would never know how they are slippers. They literally look like little purses as you can see from the photos. They are very comfy and warm. They would be great for travel esp in hotel rooms where you dont want to put your feet down but dont want to keep your shoes on or pack bulky slippers. These would also be great for an expectant mom for her hospital stay.

This is a Helmet Liner I knit for my nephew in Aghanistan. My Hubby is modeling it for me here b/4 it went into the box to be mailed. The pattern is from "Knitting for our Troops" and it knit with Casade 220 Superwash Wool. I hope it keeps him nice and toasty! We love you Joshua and are really proud of you!
