Tutorial and pattern: Faux fur and sweater Christmas stockings

Alicia from Sew What Alicia shows how you can make these faux fur trimmed sweater Christmas stockings. They’re beautiful from white sweater knit and a light brown faux fur, and have muslin ties to hang them up. Sweater knit fabric can be hard to find, so if you don’t have any you can always cut up an old sweater. (Though if you wanted to make a set of matching stockings, you’d probably need to use yardage to get enough fabric.)
