DESCRIPTION
This mini knit Christmas stocking pattern can be used as a Christmas tree ornament or as a holiday gift card holder. The pattern includes instructions for both the solid colored sock with contrasting cuff and heel, as well as the two color striped sock. These stocking ornaments are worked from the leg down, very similarly to traditional socks.
The hanging loop is made with a crochet chain, but if you don't crochet, you could substitute a stitched on ribbon or even a simple yarn loop.

My Process
My patterns are designed, not just written down, because I want your project to be a success!
Before knitting begins, I sketch ideas, test yarns, stitch swatches, create charts, do math and consider a variety of skills and construction methods. Each pattern uses standard knitting terminology and notations, is edited for technical accuracy and has a logical, easy-to-read format.
I do the work so you can relax and enjoy the knitting.
