I was happily surprised to see this Christmas stocking on your website. My mother has the same Christmas stocking with her name which was made for her when she was a child. I have never seen another one like it so this was a fun surprise. I love your idea to make them for Christmas gifts. Are you willing to share the pattern?

Amber told me I’d find you here. This is some gorgeous work you have going on.
Those long Wisconsin winters are inspiring!

What a beautiful sleeve it is

The stocking cracks me up! My husband, his brother, and his sister all have that same pattern of stocking. A relative (I can’t remember which at the moment) had knitted a personalized one for each of them when they were born. My husband is the youngest, and it seems that by the time she got around to knitting his, she had run out of the fuzzy yarn used for Santa’s beard/hair, so his is not fuzzy. Very cute!

It’s a good plan

I love that you all have the same stockings and that you’re making them for the newer members of your family, what a wonderful tradition you’re carrying on.

I also love that contrasting hem and the subtle stripes on the Herringbone sweater. Beautiful!
