The “GUNNY” Christmas stocking - the sixth annual Fiddlestyx Christmas stocking design.

This is my take on the popular burlap and lace Christmas stockings but in knitted form! The “burlap” is a simple, easy-to-memorize textured pattern and the lace cuff is knit separately and sewn on. It is knit in the round from the toe up with an after-thought heel.
