Ok so think of this as a halfway point between crumpled heap and properly blocked. This is just shoved onto a foot form (they’re called lasts, they’re what they used to make shoes around, they’re damn handy for blocking slippers), but not actually off the needles or subjected to the indignities of an hour or so in a bowl of water.

This is just because I couldn’t bear to leave the other pic as your last sight of the slipper for a while, crumpled as it was, so I needed to give it a slightly more structured view. Just in case you don’t believe me about that ‘no really, it’ll be better when it’s blocked’ thing.

And I say your last sight of it for a while because I…um…accidentally cast on the same slipper but with a different yarn. Because I wanted to check something real quick. Because that’s a normal and reasonable thing to do. Yup. Totally legit. Not at all a problem.
