Checkered Slippers

I love these slippers. Reminds me so much of my childhood. My grandmother made my sisters and I these checkered slippers every year for Christmas. She taught all of us girls how to knit and crochet. Now we are making the same things for our grandchildren. I am so happy that Mary Maxim still have all the same patterns after all these years.

I love the pattern and am making the slippers for great- grandsons

I have also just purchased yarn for a bulky sweater for a great-granddaughter and am always so pleased with the advice I receive in your Paris store. I love coming in, but am also happy with online service.
