Tallulah, thanks so much for your vote of confidence. Im excited to get started on these. I may make them bigger, as you suggested. And I dont think I want to put the holly or the berries. I'll let you know how I make out. Thanks again.

Dear Tallulah, and anyone else who cares to read and/or comment,
Ok, so I DID IT! I made a stocking! And it actually came out REALLY nice. Only thing is, I wish it was bigger. My question is, (please remember Im new to this) if I want to make it bigger...how do I know how to make it bigger. Like I dont know how to get the right dimensions as far as width and length.
Can someone help me?
Thanks so much for ALL your help thus far. Im so proud!

Not sure if this will help, but there are a few ideas.
1. Take pattern to a copy shop and have them increase size. (easiest way)
2. Put pattern on graft paper and enlarge by counting blocks and marking, then drawing around.
3. If you have a fax machine, increase the percentage and run through, then just tape the pieces together until it's the size you want (hope this makes sense :) ). This can be time consuming and a little frustrating
4. Take Parchment paper, draw the pattern on it, then take a 2" ruler and mark dots all around then join the dots.
Hopes this helps and isn't too confusing.
