Knitted Holiday Stocking


Knit a family keepsake or holiday gift stocking for someone special. This project is a great skill builder: we'll learn how to knit socks on a large scale and work on fair isle stranded colorwork. Make it as bright or subdued as you'd like--it's a great stashbuster! We will be using a “recipe” that gives general guidelines, but you’ll choose the colors, motifs and heel type that suit your recipient and skill level.

Class schedule:

  • 10/19: Design and cast-on
  • 11/2: Heel
  • 11/16: Toe and finishing
Rachel will provide reference copies of three patterns: Spindleknitters StockingsCascade Christmas Stocking and Falling Snow Stocking. You can also bring charted pictures or motifs you might want to include.

Materials to purchase or bring from home:
  • 400 yds of worsted weight yarn: Two or more contrasting colors (these don't have to be full skeins). Have about 150 yds for your main color, though.
  • DPNs and circular needles (either a 16", two circulars or magic loop) in size 7US or 8US
  • Stitch markers
  • Darning needle
