Aunt Dana's Russian Boots by Janet Armstrong


These super slipper boots are from Knitters Calendar for March 7, from Janet Armstrong being the boots that her husband's aunt used to knit. I used some odds and ends of handspun that had been lurking in the handspun basket, they were quick and simple to knit and very comfortable to wear, toes should be warm and toasty this winter

OH....how beautiful. I LOVE checking on your blog periodically. You do such wonderful work. Could you tell me where I might find the pattern for these slipper boots AND the adult surprise jacket? You have so so inspired me. I want to do more and more and more!

Keep up the beautiful work!

The pattern for the Elizabeth Zimmerman adult surprise jacket came from the book "The Opinionated Knitter" from Schoolhouse Press in America. The slippers were from the knitting calendar, which has a pattern for each page, this is for 7th March 2007.
