Finally managed to finish off the Christmas stockings for the grandchildren. I actually ended up making four of them. The first one for Callie, with a bear inside a wreath, really didn't come out all that well so I knit her a second one with the snowman. I really like it. I hope she will be as keen about it as she grows older. My first attempt at "carrying colours" in about 30 years, left my knitting with a really uneven look. That is why the first stocking didn't really go all that well. With help from my friend Effie, things improved and I'm pretty happy to have made the stockings. I'm counting on those little 'uns to be equally impressed!
