Inspired by Victorian knitting patterns, these laceweight stockings make a beautiful heirloom gift.

The flattering shaping, elegant seam and heel detail offer the
experienced sock knitter a challenging project.

They are knitted in 2 ply pure wool, making them perfect for everyday wear. The heart shaped motifs are complemented by a stylish seam running down the centre back of the stocking. With discreet leg shaping the stocking hugs and flatters the wearer. There is also charming shaping detail worked on
the heel creating a ‘fully fashioned’ appearance to the heel.

The pattern is written to fit a wide range of sizes and also with additional explanation on how to modify the sizing further.

This pattern is also part of my Vintage Gifts to Knits booklet which is available now either as an e-book or as a printed booklet or the patterns can be purchased individually as PDFs via ravelry.

Errata for this pattern can be found on the Susan Crawford Vintage website.
