2 Christmas stocking patterns in 1: A modern skyline and a taxi, so not your usual Christmas motives, and neither are the colours.

The technique used is fair isle knitting, it is an advantage to have knitted in the round before. There are lots of photos showing the cast on, the heel and the toe.

The size will depend on the yarn used, I recommend double knitting yarn/ worsted weight yarn. To make it really big, use chunky yarn and circular knitting needles.
