This is the pattern for the Christmas stocking I made for Amy Louise, one of my five grandchildren. The other 4 single patterns are also available. However, if you want to knit stockings and be able to choose different motifs and Fair Isle patterns, it is more economical to buy my multi pattern. ‘Design and Knit Fabulous Fair Isle Christmas Stockings’

I wanted traditional red, green and white for my stockings, but to make it easier for you to work with different colours, most of the colour work charts are presented in dark grey and white.

The patterns include a helpful ‘How To’ section giving instructions for reading colour work charts, Kitchener stitch and making a twisted cord; together with useful links for stranding, and avoiding long floats.
