New Pattern: Seussian Christmas Stocking
I just completed this Christmas Stocking for our dear little Sweet Pea. This will be her official Christmas Stocking that will stay on the farm with Grandma and Grandpa. When I first showed it to her, she let out a happy squeal and leaned forward to look more closely with a big grin on her face … at 9 months old she already appreciates knitting projects!
We have also been having fun introducing her to Christmas lights, Santa Claus, the tree, pine cones, snow … so many iconic symbols of holiday joy. She shows excitement over each new discovery!
You can find this pattern as a download in my Etsy store and at Ravelry. Within a couple of days I will add it to my website pattern catalog and will add a printed version of it. If you want a printed version, let me know and I will let you know once I have added it to the store.
Happy holidays!

Thank you for the pattern it is lovely our newest family will be receiving one of these for Christmas 2010 as with all I have left to finish for this year I would never get it started let alond finished. It is nice to see a different slant on an old idea.

It is beautiful, no wonder she gave you a big grin. My grand-daughter loves to sit with me while I knit, she loves to unravel the yarn too! Merry Christmas and have a wonderful New Year.
