A stocking on Christmas Eve


I found this free pattern for a Christmas stocking on http://www.knitpicks.com/

The pattern is named "Miss Eiderdown's Stocking" if you are wanting to search for it.

There are some embellishments I have not yet gotten to. The pattern includes three charts for duplicate stitch motifs... a snowman, a snow flake, and a pine tree. You can see there is a nice area on the stocking portion just screaming for more decoration. You might recognize the yarn I used from the miniature sweaters I made a few weeks back. Yarn from my Mom's yarn stash (Thanks Mom!). We had light dustings of snow the last two mornings, but now it's bright and sunny and melty.
