Thrummed soles make these slippers incredibly cozy with plenty of cushioning to keep your toes off those freezing cold floors this winter. The sole is knit first, thrumming the snowflake design and the remaining toe stitches to create a warm, cozy slipper that feels like a hug. The top of the slipper is knit in a single piece that is then attached to the sole with small whip stitches. The cuff is then slightly folded down and tacked in place to create the feeling of a bootie. If you like a little extra flair, add a pom or a button to the heel.
