Merry Christmas everyone!

I’m not really sure if Christmas stockings are common in Sweden in general but it’s always been a tradition in my family. During my childhood, my parents would always surprise me with a present from Santa in my Christmas stocking on the morning on Christmas eve. This year, I wanted to surprise my husband with a Christmas stocking of his own (and of course a small present :) ).

While he was at work, I made this stocking from some burlap that was leftover from the Christmas tree sack and decorations and some red linen I had in my fabric pile. The pattern is drafted based on a picture of an actual knitted stocking that I found on Google.
