Okay, Ill admit Im stumped. I understand the principle behind this project, but Im really not sure how necessary this is. Why not just wear longer socks, or work the slippers so the cuff is higher? These things are so small I foresee them easily getting separated, and Im not just talking about in the wash. Interesting idea, but I think Ill take a pass. I might add them to the top of some slippers though.
