Working on my 2nd giant Christmas stocking. The one I did last year for my great-nephew was a ‘hit’; however, his dad commented that his son’s stocking was bigger than his. He said this again a couple of weeks ago, so as a surprise, I’m making him a giant one as well.

Here’s the pattern:

The texture is just fabulous. I’m using Charisma bulky 5 yarn. Colors were problematic (no ‘green’ other than sage), but the main stocking is red, the heel & toe are a heathered gray (gray with some white flecks) and the cuff will be black. I’m lining this one - fabric has a white background with deer, bear, hawks, & animal tracks in three main colors: black, red, & red/black plaid. Perfect for a hunter! I’ll post pics when I’ve made more progress. Starting at the toe, I’m up to the heel.
