Tutorial: Mini Christmas Stockings

Emily from Simple Notable reduced the size of her sister’s free Retro-Style Christmas Stocking pattern to make these mini Christmas stockings. She made several sizes that are 30%, 35%, and 50% of the original. You can use the smaller ones as Christmas ornaments or packaging for a tube of lip gloss. She used the larger (50% size) as a flatware holder for a holiday dinner. She’s got the reduced sizes all in a handy PDF for you to download, along with tips for making the smaller scale stockings.
