For my knitwear class, we were given a challenge to create knit shoes that were made all from what we could find at the local Dollar Store. Depicted below is the process of design/construction from start to finish.
I purchased some bowls, cotton twine, t-shirts, door hangers, a hammer, a screw, nails, and other various hardware.
Next, I attempted to hammer holes in the aluminum bowls, but ended up having to use a hand drill.
Once I finally drilled in the holes, I screwed the bowls to the door hangers. These two creations serve as the base of the shoes.
Next, I began to knit a cusion for the inside of the base for the knitted shoe. Also, I decorated the outter bottom part by wrapping twine around it.
