I hope you are doing well. I finished knitting the stocking for my kitten Millie. I hoped to be finished this past year for Christmas, but it was a bit more work that I realized. I will now have it ready for next Christmas. I used the classic Christmas stocking pattern by Betty Lai on Ravelry. I like the size of the stocking for our kitten, and think it would be fun to knit up some more for Liam and I in the future. I liked the pattern, it was easy to follow and fun to knit up. I used the letter chart that Betty provided on her Pinterest as a guide to knit up Millie's name on the stocking. It was fun trying out something new and I haven't knitted out letters before this project. Below Millie is posing with the finished stocking. She is bigger now, but she definitely could have fit into this stocking when we first got her.
Pattern: Classic Christmas Stocking by Betty Lai
Yarn: worsted weight yarn in white and red

Notes: On Ravelry
Joining along with As Kat Knits for Unraveled Wednesday.
Thank you for visiting today and I hope that you are having a great week! Sorry this post was a day late! I wanted to finish the stocking for Wednesday, and was working on it this week and realized I needed more time. I hope you join me for tomorrow's Friday Focus post on what I learned from last year 2021.
Have a great day!
what a lovely cat sitting near her precious Christmas stocking!!
ReplyDeleteMillie and her stocking are a perfect match! Congrats on a great finish - I haven't tried letter charts yet, so admire your ability with that.
