I made a red stocking for Owen Aberle.
It’s a bright and cheery Christmas red color.
and a braided cable! I love braided cables!
this was my first stocking, but now that I’ve made one I know that it’s not all that hard, and I’ll certainly be making some more this coming year!
I want to make them for all 3 of us, (and for future children) but I am torn between wanting to make all matching ones with names on top, or having everyone had a different color but all the same style, or all different styles and all the same color. Any input?
Different colors, different styles. It’ll be more fun that way, and they will always rememeber which was theirs.
Same style with names on top. It’s unified and cohesive. And how do you pick (at birth/1 year old, etc) what color and style -that will last them their whole Christmas life – for your baby?
i grew up with these huge knit stockings. they were all the same style, but different pictures on the front. all white with either a reindeer, or tree, or something else on the fronts with a red rim at the top. i love them and so my vote is: same pattern, different colors.
depends on you – – – cause once they leave home they will probably change and get something different! Me – I would like different ones for different kids
