I saw these Mary Jane style knitted slippers on the Victoria’s Secret website. They wouldn’t be that hard to knit would they? To me it looks like, and remember I knit toe-up socks, knit to heel and then cast off. Pick up stitches for the strap and knit until it’s long enough to fasten comfortably and make a simple button hole.
Hmmm I really fancy making some of those right now but I have to brave the city centre for Xmas shopping. 
But when I do get a chance to knit them, and I’m thinking possibly worsted weight yarn or a little heavier I will post the pattern. They’ll be for tiny feet though, I’m a UK size 4 which is a US 6.5 and European 37. But I think you could adapt any sock pattern for them.
Here’s a link to where to buy a pdf pattern for Mary Jane’s if you don’t want to work it out for yourself!

Good to have you back. Hope 2007 bring good things for you.
Hope the packing is continuing to go well and you and Pushkin are settling in. I miss your podcast terribly! Wishing you a peaceful Christmas and joyful New Year!
Hello Marie, I hadn’t stopped in for a while because my life got too busy to listen to podcasts for awhile… But being a fan, I stopped at KnitCast first. I just now saw the news of your move. Know that a knitter from San Francisco area is thinking ‘good thoughts’ for you in your new digs. I look forward to your podcasts whenever you can do them again. All the best for the holidays and New Year.
