Just have the buttons to put on and then I will take a picture. Will definitely make another pair.

Although they are pretty sturdy, they will shape to your feet(or your recipients) with wear. As far as length differences you can always do a search for foot sizes and measurements.

I have high arches and my friend whom I making them for is totally flat footed......any suggestions or does it not matter! Happy Knitting!

Thanks Emma for sorting us out. I bought 12ply because I thought worsted meant 12ply. I have size 11 feet so maybe the 12ply will work for me if I stick with the same needles. I will defintely need to do a tension square if I am to have any chance of these slippers fitting my flippers. Hi Marie. Thanks Emma for sorting us out.
