Angry red goobler man done!

03/15/2025 hoping to get some other colors for blue man. Just not knitting up right

Physical medicine tree (or other) ornaments for co-workers

Moon boot:Done!

1. Toe box. Flap with the toes the full length to where foot bends. Flap on left to meet it, flap on right to meet it.
2. "Main body" of the boot is an overlarge flap across leg, like a forearm brace (no "tongue" like a high top converse shoe without its tongue. It has two "sideways tongues"). The rear guard is already on, and straps go from the sides and across the back, and extra long strap lengths to velcro across the front, once the front guard is in place.
3. Set in heel, and then there are ankle cushions on either side of ankle (we will not see it)
4. Close full shin/leg flaps. 
5. Place guard/shield on FRONT SIDE "closed" sideways tongues/flaps (since BACK SIDE already has one pre-set in place)
6. Strap guard across toe box and also shin guard
7. There is a airbag/pillow to fill up gaps

(1) base to add flaps and wraps onto
(3) toe flaps
(1) rear guard that will be attached first
(1) shin guard
(4) velcro straps

(1) air mattress knob

Moon Boot Option #2
Full shell that is LINED with the soft casing. Completely open toe. Shin guard with THREE straps. Also has an air mattress
