Such a great soldier saluting in this keepsake stocking pattern. You may change out the colors making his pants blue, black or whatever color you choose.

No gauge required
Finished size approximately 7” x 23”
You may use any wool or acrylic. I prefer acrylic because it is a little stiffer and will hang to have the entire front of the stocking showing.

Backside is plain.
Pattern includes: Written stocking instructions, alphabet and number chart, hints and a color chart of the soldier

Knitted flat and sewn up the back seam
