:0  That's your favorite color, too?     Yay. I was hoping it would be okay...   I'm glad it got there okay, and that you like it.  I wasn't sure about the tea. Half of the people in our family like it, half think it's all right....    

  I had fun making your slippers, and being your swap partner.     I want to make some of those slippers for my Mom, too.

Is the sock slippers a pattern online?  I am making slippers to send to the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, these would be good for there.  They look like these desert boots:http://www.knitlist.com/97gift/desertboots.htm
I will have to try them. They're so cozy, I've been wearing them all afternoon.  (I forgot to mention, it's only 65 here today.   ) After being cooked in the desert heat all summer, it feels cold!  :P

Thanks so much, again. I feel so spoiled.

The ones for the cold weather were the ones from here

The ones for cool weather were from here
Yea, I know what you mean It's been in the upper 40's at night and the 70's during the day and I have long sleeves and my wool slippies on..
My poor wool slippies have holes in them.. Just have to make me some more. I used the Fiber Trends Felted Clogs pattern and love them...

I thought the cold weather ones were those desert boots.       I started a pair of them last night. They're cool.  And just what I need, now that we are living in the desert.
