Log Cabin Slippers

A couple of years ago I made Jason a pair of Log Cabin socks from "Handknit Holidays" to wear around the house. Late last fall he discovered they were developing holes in the heels so while we were in Colorado for Christmas we visited Shuttles Spindles and Skeins where I picked up some comfy slipper bottoms. I knit the last pair with Cascade Ecological wool which seemed to wear out pretty quickly so this time I'm using Lamb's Pride worsted in hopes the mohair will make them a bit sturdier. This will be my first time using the slipper bottoms, they look so comfy and warm!

What a great idea to put slipper bottoms on them!! I knit one Log Cabin sock last week - it was my travel knitting for the plane. Quick and fun. :)

That's neat! Be sure to show us how you attach the bottom. I am interested in how it works.

I've never used soles for slippers before, but presumeably they last forever and a day that way? Nice knit, by the way.
