The Design

“Start a creative tradition!”

We love creating personalized Christmas stockings. And Brown Sheep Lamb's Pride Worsted gives so many color options. Our pattern gives you a few ideas to get started and our adaptation tells you what we did to make the various sizes and stripes. The possibilities are limitless!

One skein each of three colors provides enough yarn to knit one ‘Jolly Big’, three ‘Wee’, or a combination of different stocking sizes with a variety of striping patterns. Below, we show some options for stockings you can knit from just one three-skein selection.

The Details

Wee: 5"/13cm; Medium: 6½"/16.5 cm; Jolly Big: 8"/20cm.
