A classy, heirloom quality Christmas Stocking with beautiful details including a cuff with points and a lovely, easy to knit zig zag stictch leg and foot. The pattern requires about 300 yards of a worsted weight yarn. I used Royal Silk Merino, which is scrumptiously soft and wonderful to work with.

This pattern is available by itself, but is also one of the stocking patterns included in the Three Scrumptious Christmas Stockings pattern. If you want to make more than one stocking design, check out that pattern to save some money.

I put quite a lot of care into publishing my knitting patterns, including features such as:

  1. Beautiful, scrapbook style full-color coversheet
  2. Complete list of materials and yardage requirements
  3. Color closeup photos of stitch patterns with detailed instructions
  4. Personal journal page for your own project notes and photo
  5. Black and white reference photo for easier color visualization
