This is enough yarn for at 3 solid stockings (or up to 5, if you get creative with stripes!). To make 3 as shown, use a different shade of Nine-Note for each Cuff, Body, and Pom Pom + Hanging Loop, and 1 skein of Note for all the Heels + Toes (we explain how in the pattern). Or, do like we did, and use a few different colors of Note for variety and holiday cheer!
