The Fruit Cake Stocking is a fun and fresh take on a holiday
classic. Cheerful, customizable polka dots in three
complementary accent colors evoke a bright, light-hearted
vision of holiday décor.

The stocking is worked toe-up in the round with toe and heel
knit in a contrasting color. Wrapped stitch short rows shape
the heel. The folded cuff is anchored with a 3-needle bind
off. Large and small polka dots are added using duplicate
stitch. An I-Cord hanging loop completes the stocking.
