A cute little traditional Christmas Stocking, worked in two colour stranded colourwork. The pattern has two designs to choose from: Christmas trees or Snowflakes. There are written instructions and charts for the colourwork. It is knit using a short circular needle and dpns, but can be easily adapted to the magic loop method.

This pattern has directions for working from the top down. There are instructions for a Wrap and Turn short row heel, however this can be changed to your own choice of short row, FLK, or afterthought heel.

There are directions for two different toe patterns, a wedge toe and a rounded toe.

Finished Measurements: cuff to toe - 28 cm / 11 inches

Needles: 5 mm (US 8 ) circular needles/dpns
4 mm (US 6) circular needles/dpns for toe & heel.
* If using a short circular you will need either a longer cable for magic loop or dpns when the circumference gets too small nearing the end of the toe.
