... I have ordered these beautiful felt slippers from Clemente Copenhagen. SO cute. Made from 100% Norwegian wool, they are oh-so warm and snug for little ones, who spend the majority of their time down on the floor.
Felting is an ancient craft and has a sustained heritage, and there is a strong Nordic tradition of felted boots, socks, hats, and mittens. The term felting refers to taking an animal fiber (most often wool), shaping it in some way, then, through a process of very hot water and agitation, converting it into a tightly cohesive fabric. So there is an idea if you are missing a present for somebody suffering from winter cold feet!
