About
The Snow Season Stockings are a vintage inspired stocking pattern. The stockings are knit top-down in the round starting with a long ribbed cuff that is folded over to be extra squishy. Then, the cuff is worked with a cabled motif and moss stitch on either side.

The heel is shaped with German Short Rows. The cabled motif and moss stitch is continued over the length of the foot. Lastly, decreases are worked to shape the toe of the stocking.
