 Pig-Mailing On 2023 Part 3

Now I have finished the Back I can move on.

Start at the Front

 

The main part of the Slippers is obviously the Front. I wasn’t happy about the lack of Pigness. Therefore I needed to improve the look. The thing that was irritating me the most was the Ears.

The Ears were completely the Wrong Shape. Since when did Pigs have round Ears? These looked more like a Hippopotamus than a Pig.

2.75mm Needle

 

I again decided upon using an I-Cord. This would echo the effect of the Back. I therefore found a smaller pair of 2.75mm Needles to use.

Too Big

 Even though I had dropped several Sizes when I came to make the Cords I found that they were Too Big for my purpose. Therefore I had to start again.

I found a pair of Needles that 2.5mm. Though still slightly larger than I would have like they would do as I didn’t have any smaller.

Sew I-Cord Ends

 

I finally finished the I-Cords and Sewed in the Ends.

4 I-Cords

 

This time I needed 4 Cords. I realised after I put them on I hadn’t measured them. At a rough guess I would say they were all 3 Thumb Lengths Long.
