Tree-rrific Christmas Stocking

Description

This pattern is also available for free on the blog! Or you can add it to your Ravelry library.

A simple and quick knit using only one ball of yarn (Bernat Softee Chunky). This stocking features a textured Christmas Tree and the stocking is completely reversible, so it could be hung in any of FOUR different ways!

The Christmas tree and cuff are made with combinations of knits and purls and the heel is made with a short row heel.

You can use either dpns for the whole stocking, or use 16” circular needles for all but the last couple rows of the toe.

If you would like to add a name to the stocking you just need to pick which side to put it on, and I’ve provided links for some options for how to add a name.
