STOCKING


This is a Christmas Stocking was a request from a co-worker.  Most of the pattern is inspired from the countless number of crocheted Christmas Stockings that I saw online.  The stocking can be made in any color.  I made the stocking in the color I did because that is what my co-worker had requested.
