The Toe I Could Live With
The toe I could live with is NOT the toe that I wanted, but nevertheless, here it is. Pointy? Check. Elven curl? Not so much.
I do love the colors, though.
I am still contemplating adding a cuff to the top, just to give them a little more personality. Slippers should be fun and funky, and these just need a little something more to push them over that edge.
I am going to leave the Olympic theme up for a few days. That way Kaizerin will get a chance to post her results and also because I’m feeling a little sad that it’s over. Of course, that sadness is going to be pretty fleeting since Kaizerin and I have another little project we are in the midst of cooking up… More details to follow…

I love them! They may not be quite what you were envisioning, but they’re great. You can put them down in the “happy accident” category. (I am using “accident” in the ancient sense of “slavishly worked and re-worked to get the desired result”, of course.)

Hi-ya! I’m with Kaizerin–they’re awesome! Happy accident indeed! Any Elf would be proud to sport those slippers around town or around the house! Give yourself a pat on the back for a job well done.

These are worthy elf-footcoverings, despite the toe’s refusal to cowtoe.

A side view would have shown how much or little they curl up. Just saying.
Sometimes it’s better to go with a more subtle effect. Stealth Elf.
