I know the pattern says heavy worsted weight wool but would that work??

Two strands of WOTA works perfectly--I think the majority of clogs around here were knit with WOTA.

When using WOTA for the Fiber Trend Clogs, is it doubled or just one strand? About how many yards/oz per pair, say of women's medium sized clogs? I'm thinking of making them as Christmas presents for family members so will be ordering WOTA in bulk. I don't have the pattern in front of me and want to figure out an order to KnitPicks.... :teehee:

Don't know your other answers, but see Ingrids reply.

Yarnlady,
It's 600 yards for women's medium - 6 skeins WOTA. If you're doing two color clogs, then 2 skeins of the upper color and 4 skeins of the sole/cuff color.
These make GREAT Christmas presents - especially if you give them unfelted and can watch the recipient's face when they open them! :roflhard: :roflhard:
Have fun! :cheering:

I'm not really that evil a Santa. :teehee:
I gave them unfelted to DH, my Dad and Dad's DSO on Christmas morning. My Dad's were blue and grey, and he was wearing one of them like a Smurf hat that morning. When everyone came for Christmas dinner I did a massive clog felt, and everyone got a custom fit that way. It was fun and there was also the WOW :?? :notworthy: factor between the unfelted and felted sizes.
If I have to mail felted items I do the felting and make an educated guess on the size, but that one Christmas morning was priceless.! :teehee:
