Easily done on the machine thank goodness. I have three more sets finished and ready to be seamed up. 8 chairs makes 32 boots. I'm more than half way there. Roll Eyes

Charlene,

YAY! So what yarn did you end up using, you prolific knitter, you?!

Variagated Red Heart yarn (shades of blue). Red Heart isn't fun to work with because it's stiff and scratchy but in this case it's perfect. It should wear well as chair boots/socks.

Charlene,

I completely agree...it's scratchy and hard to work with...but perfect for this application!

Have decided that I'll do a set for four chairs and put them on Artfire to see how they do.
