This knitting pattern creates a festive Christmas stocking, complete with a decorative cuff of ridges and tassels.

The Jingle Stocking is basically a sock, but bigger! In fact, if you’re an aspiring sock knitter, this pattern will help you learn the basics. The pattern includes detailed instructions and written tutorials to help you with every step. Plus, you can watch my tutorial videos to see exactly how I do it all -- links are available below.
