  2. I love this! I wear my crazy cat lady self with pride. Do I qualify as a crazy cat lady since I only have 2 cats? We’ve just moved and I’m trying to get rid of some things. The things I didn’t get rid of when we were packing. Anyway, I have all these orphan socks and this is perfect. I might even make a few with catnip in them for my babies. Apparently we have a nip problem around here. It can happen in the best of families. I stepped on something in the dark that felt odd. They’d found a box of catnip (that was in a plastic sleeve) and ripped it open. There was some still left so I put it up on a shelf. Guess who got it down and finished ripping it open? Yep. They’re addicts and they don’t even care!

Book Review: Knitted Christmas Stockings

There’s something special about a Christmas stocking.  I used the same stocking throughout my childhood, and when my daughter was born I made her a stocking that she has used every year.  

If you enjoy knitting, you can use your knitting skills to create heirloom Christmas stockings for the people in your life.  Knitted Christmas Stockings: 25 Festive Designs to Make for Family and Friends by Emilee Reynolds shows how you can knit the cutest, coziest Christmas stockings. 

The book includes designs for every personality and design style – from modern geometric designs to festive Christmas elves and gnomes, to Nativity characters and more traditional designs such as angels, hearts, snowflakes, and samplers.  There are enough of each type of design that you can make a coordinating set of stockings for your whole family. 

Each of the 25 designs includes full color photos, step-by-step instructions and a color chart.  An alphabet chart at the back allows you to customize your stocking with names.  And for those new to knitting – or just needing a refresher – there’s a section at the back showing how to make the stitches. 

All stockings in this book are knit top down and include a turned heel and a short ribbed cuff.  Color work designs are easy to follow using the included charts with each design.  All stockings in this book are similar in size which makes it easy to mix and match to make a customized set.

Whether you’re looking to make stockings to be used year in and year out, or just want to create a fun accent for your Christmas décor, Knitted Christmas Stockings has the designs for you.  Grab some yarn and some basic knitting supplies, and knit up some festive Christmas stockings.  A perfect project to knit up while watching your favorite Christmas movies on the couch!
