Stocking


Stocking

I haven't had much time for creating lately but while I was cleaning I came across some photos of past projects, so I'm sharing a bit of my history today. This PNE second place winning stocking is a lace sampler knit with worsted weight yarn with a cotton lace edging added below the ribbing. Burgandy and white flowers and ribbons trim the back. This was made for a niece and there was a bit of a panic when I went to pick up my entries and it was missing. It was soon found with a group entry and all ended well.

Hi Joanne,
I am wondering what year you had this entered? How awful it couldn't be found at first - I am sure you were worried. I always wished one or other of my grandmothers had made me something like this to have and remember them by. Alas, I have never learned how to knit or crochet. It is lovely and I am sure the person you gave it to cherishes it!
Hugs,
Candy
