I'm going to try this pattern but could not find it on Ravelry. I think you should add it so that users can add their projects with the proper pattern info.

I love these slippers! It's the perfect knitting project to get myself into the fall mood, and the pompoms are a lot of fun. Also, slippers are a great way to use up those leftover skeins.
