The Hearts & Trees Stocking is one of four different stockings in a series of traditional Christmas stockings using various different motifs and certain repeating themes.

It’s always about the details for me when creating a knitted piece, and this stocking has some lovely ones. It begins with a two-color cast-on and knitted braid and progresses through several different motifs and color changes. Use duplicate stitch after the stocking is finished to personalize for someone special. And the tassel - too much fun!

This stocking is available either individually, or purchased together with the Diamonds & Circles Stocking as a set of two under the name Fair-Isle Stockings I.

The pattern includes color charts and all instructions needed to work all the techniques as well as links to video tutorials.
