Description: Two projects in one pattern - a Stocking and a Hat! Create your one of a kind stranded project by personalizing your color palette, and then choosing your favorite colorwork motifs from the library of charts included in the pattern. No two projects will be alike!

• Stocking: The traditional size of a Christmas Stocking is that of a child’s sock, hung by the fireplace in hopes of collecting a treat from the Big Red Dude. This stocking design takes us back toward the traditional - it’s perfectly sized to hold holiday treasures such as Belgian chocolates, diamonds, or a bottle of wine, but is not so big as to appear greedy.

• Hat: Add some color to your Winter accessory wardrobe with this hat design that allows you to customize the overall look. The Hat is worked at 22 sts per 4 inches on recommended US Size 6 needles, and is written for three sizes: Toddler, Child, and Adult.
