Bulky Christmas Stocking Class Samples

Pattern: Embellished Christmas Stocking Pattern by Melissa Morgan-Oakes

Yarn: Valley Yarns Berkshire Bulky (150 yds MC) and Berkshire (20 yds each of four or five CC's)

Needles:US 10, US7

Size:18-20" long when finished

Modifications:Ummm...a lot.

Comments:This stocking is worked flat to allow the easy application of various embellishments, then closed at the back. It was designed and knit for a workshop that never was, and is recommended for people who've had some experience with short rows and/or basic sock construction. It was fun and fast to knit, and I'd recommend it to anyone seeking a quick Christmas gift idea. The stripey stocking is Reynold's Blizzard, and is basically the stocking base pattern in stripes rather than a solid with embellishments.
