Here are the clogs for my dad all felted and shaped. I stuffed the clogs full of plastic bags to shape them while they dried. I must give a huge thanks to momslake on the KR Forum… she helped me with my questions and told me to “just knit and don’t try to understand the instructions.” It sounds silly but honestly, these clogs don’t make sense until you’re completely done knitting one. (I hid them under the sink to dry because my dad would never look there!)
And here is my WIP Resolution: No more new projects until I finish the 2 snoozefest scarves… I mean the ribbed scarf for my sister and the scarf for my BF.
I only just started the ribbed scarf because I wanted to make her a Christmas gift… and CW’s scarf I’ve been plodding along at for a reeeeeally long while. It’s been the ultimate-UFO-WIP-project. (I don’t know what the pattern or stitch is but it’s K1, yo, K2tog)

The clogs look great! I’ve made them twice – it really is an ingenious pattern, isn’t it. I completely agree with the advice you were given. I know a couple of total newbies who have made them successfully – they had no problems, because they just blindly followed the pattern, and didn’t try to figure it out!

I’d like to try those too, but geeze my want to list is getting long!

The clogs and the scarf look great! Yes, Rhinebeck is definitely worth going to!
