(writing this from the Netherlands, but the pictures were – obviously – taken on Curaçao)
I finished these just in time to take them with me. I have to admit that the color really, really isn’t me. I bought this on the island, and there wasn’t a lot of choices. I do like the color as is, but it doesn’t go with any of my clothes. Still, I’m wearing these almost 24 hours a day (yes, I wear them in bed). We do have heated floors in our Airbnb, but I still get cold feet.
I used a pattern that I had written down in my knitting notebook. I thought Ravelry said it was offline, but I found it here.
I love how simple, yet effective it is. I did make one change though. I found previous versions were very slippery, so I decided to knit the whole sole (1/3 of the stitches) in garter stitch, instead of all stockinette after joining in the round. I do feel it works (or maybe I’m just walking more careful these days).
