So, at the suggestion of customers, I decided to start making the little baby shoes out of recycled wool sweaters. After cutting up a bunch of sweaters for pants and other goodies, I dug through the leftovers to find enough pieces to make a pair of shoes. Oddly, the pieces I have left when I’m done with sweaters aren’t necessarily big enough for shoes, so out of 8 sweaters, I found pieces for two slightly mismatched shoes. Which is fine just to give it a try, right?
But then, as I was sewing, I completely forgot how I make the heel. And so totally ruined that pair. Nice one.
Actually, the way I make the heel for cotton shoes works fine for cotton shoes, but will be REALLY bulky for wool shoes, so I need to figure out a new way anyway. Just, clearly, the way I did it is NOT that way.

This reminds me of something I saw on Rachael Ray a few weeks back. They too were recycling old sweaters and using old boots to make those stylish sweater boots. I was digging through my old boots trying to find a pair that I’d be willing to sacrafice, so I could try this out. I couldn’t find one pair that I didn’t LOVE. So, I’m going to find me a sturdy pair from a thrift store and give it a try. Have you seen this idea too?

No, I haven’t! I’m not even sure what stylish sweater boots are… I’m not really, um, current on fashion, lol.
