That is all.
A little compensation:

I'm thinking of making a pair of knitted slippers for Bub. She has these great, cosy little boots, but they're a bit of a struggle to put on. I'd like something I can chuck on her feet without the fuss, but with a bit of warmth. I have a French version of these Baby kimono slippers, which looks rather quick & appealing.
Years ago I made a striped cushion in a Linen Stitch. It's a lovely woven stitch, easy for anyone familiar with stocking stitch, and looks glorious with
variegated yarns. While you have to do about 130% of the rows to get the same height as regular knitting, its density pays off. I thought I could use this stitch in a little slipper to add warm and strength. With a firmer sole, I can more easily put some puff paint or something on a slipper sole so Bub has a little grip.

The other appeal of the kimono shoes is that, as they are knitted flat and are very simple, I suspect I could adjust the dimensions as I need, which would be necessary since I'd be using a different stitch. Hmmm..... ponderponderponder...
