Two more FO's !!

The first is the Christmas stocking for our #2 grandson Daniel. I used blue on the heel & toe so it would be different from his older brother's stocking. I added the extra 2 rows of chain duplicate stitch and the "fuzzy" edging, too, just like Michael's - see photo on November 4 entries.


The second is the first dishcloth (of many to do) that I've completed. This one will be for my DD-i-L.

Do you have a yardage count on these?

I love the Christmas stocking. Is it your own pattern? Or is a pattern on the internet I can buy. What a wonderful gift for your grandson.

I'm sorry I don't have yardage as I used yarn from my stash, plus some I purchased - but for both stockings I made I had ~3 balls of white/white glitz, 1 ball each of red & green, plus the blue that was used.
The pattern basis was from the Coats & Clark site, but it was done flat on 2 needles. I changed it to be made on 5 needles-in the round-and altered the duplicate stitch designs plus added the "fuzzy" yarn to the top.
