Hi Daniella, first of all, what ply of yarn are you using? If you are using
a 5 ply yarn such as Bernat Soft N Chunky, that should make a sturdy enough
heel and toe. I have doubled up with 2 strands of 4 ply yarn if I was using
that weight of yarn for the heels and toes.
I have never used felt for the bottoms of my slipper/socks, I have seen the
non skid materials used for the bottoms though, these materials are
available at Jo Anns.
I hope that I have answered your questions. if you need any more help, just
ask either Terry P, Cathy F or me and we'll be glad to help.

Hello all,I have started to loom knitt socks, and I was wondering how I
could make the toes and heals stronger? I think that overtime they are going
to where out. Some people have told me to put felt on the heals and toes,
but I think that would take away from their look if I was to sell them.
Also, if I wanted to start selling products, how do you price them for
people to buy?Thanks for all your help! :-)
