Mirjam,

Today i went a bit into town , saw sandals with Crocheted Mini granny
sqaures .

Glad to hear you can get out again. I've been really busy with my own
crises, but I think about everyone on the list often.

I'm designing different sandals for slippers (different from the ones
I pictured on my web site), just to see what it takes me to do it, and
what materials I can adapt to make them, and those granny squares
sound really cute. Where were they used? Just for straps? Just in
the foot bed? In both the foot bed and straps? Were the squares made
with thread or thin yarn or thick yarn? My current sandal design will
be for both inside and outside when I finally get it done.

I've been researching sandals, and people made them out of all kinds
of ingenious things, not just leather, but also wood, and all kinds of
natural things like braided flax leaves, yucca fibers (American desert
plant, not sure if it grows elsewhere in the world) spun into thread,
cattail leaves, and thread made from tree bark. They were usually
woven in some manner (coiled or woven in different ways like twill),
which differed in many places, and I found interesting similarity
between Japanese waraji and zori (rope warp with straw woven weft) and
an American Indian sandal design.

Take care!

Leah

Hallo Leah the mini granny aqures were used for the sandal straps ,l
the soles were `normal `
They seemed to me made either of DMC embroidery threads or very thin
cotton.

But we hope the best! And listen to the news' details several times a

Let's hope there is a solution everybody can "live with"!
