Kickshaws
These slippers were originally designed for the Jimmy Beans Knit Club. The pattern has now been reformatted in my own template and it’s available on Ravelry!
“Art thou good at these kickshawses!” wrote Shakespeare, a slang term from him for something frivolously fancy and fun. These slippers will be a fun project, and make you feel fancy padding around during the colder seasons, but they are certainly not frivolous! Warm and practical, the three-part construction allows you to custom-fit the slippers. Lots of squishy garter stitch adds coziness and fun stripes!
