This Christmas stocking is colorful and fun. It looks more complicated than it is, as much of the color comes from simple stripes in a mix of traditional and non-traditional colors. Christmas doesn’t yell “lime” and “teal” but add these colors in with some holiday red and white and the result is a winner. Choice of wrapped, rolled edge (shown) or hemmed edge. Instructions are a mix of written and graphs.

Clear written instructions and easy-to-read graphs. One size.

Advanced beginner level. Helpful video links and notes for those new to stranded knitting are included on last page.
