I've been felting slippers lately.
I rubberbanded rocks in the top part of the slipper before felting. It gave them a narrower fit.

A multi media of materials. The background was a wholly sweater, fabricated leafs from wool fleece, simple knitted flowers and a little kntted glove for the button. My goal was to make a riot of flowers.
