Slippers for Violet

Violet loved the slippers I crocheted for Melissa and wanted her own pair. My first attempt was way too small. It's easier to increase the size of a pattern. Not so simple to make it smaller.

The finished product was perfect. Violet wanted purple and blue so I chose jewel toned colors.

Since Violet is so special, I even made little pom poms for the ends of the ties. Then she asked if I'd make a pair for her American Girl Doll, Mia. Even after over 30 years of crocheting, I can't make the pattern that small. I guess I'm going to have to see if I can find a pattern online. Or maybe they have a pair of slippers at the American Girl Doll store in Chicago!
