"This is an easy pattern, so don't be afraid of it. If you do have a problem with one being too big, a simple fix is to use a darning needle and run a length of yarn around the top edge of the slipper, drawing it up to fit your foot. This pattern is a variation on a classic pattern, which never quite works out because they stretch with use. Running the yarn around it fixes that. I use the yarn to make a bow tie at the toe and it can be adjusted as needed."

"I think I will do this and maybe make it a bit smaller for the tree, since I usually put a lot of ornaments on it. I have a lot of white buttons that would be pretty mixed with red or metallic buttons, and maybe make a bigger wreath like this to hang on the wall."

"Hmm, I like the name of this DIY craft. It's what drew me to it. I would wear these during the Halloween season, especially for attending a party. There's just something about it. After reading the pattern, (and I am a crocheter), I almost think this is similar to macrame. It might be helpful to have a peg on a post and hang the bracelet as you work it."

"Truthfully, any old material will do. Jersey tee shirts, old skirts anything but heavy fabrics. Oooh, this may be GREAT for use with my Gramma's vintage hankies that I inherited from her. They are floral prints, gingham checks, and some are plain white or ivory with lace trim. I would love to be able to upcycle them and wear them with pride."
