  4. These are so great! I’m filing this pattern for fall (I never seem to sit still long enough to crochet during spring and summer!)

  6. My daughter was looking over my shoulder when I was browsing yesterday and made me stop for these slippers – we each made a pair yesterday morning while watching TV. They’re so quick and easy!
