Scandinavian stockings like my grandma made them. Make your own pair below or above the knee in the color combination you fancy - see our photos. We believe that it is not only grannies susceptible to cold who would like these, but also teens and young women fashionably dressed in winter shorts/skirts. Or how about knitting just one as a Christmas Stocking for presents!

THIS IS A NEW AND IMPROVED PATTERN, see our blog why:http://danishknitdesign.blogspot.com/2014/04/new-nordic-deer-star-stocking-pattern.html
