Sewbiz,

I knit and realize how difficult it is to knit something that small. It is so incredible. I am sure whomever receives it will love it.

Sewbiz did you use the smallest of knitting needles. Unreal!

I used size 2 needles... small but not the smallest. And sportweight yarn. It was the only way to get something small enough to be an ornament! I've made many, many pairs of handknit socks and they take even smaller needles... size 1 or even 0. My hands would rather handle the small needles than the bulky/big ones.

So glad you all like the stocking. Now... who is going to get it?

Love the stocking sewbiz! How cute is that? Whomever gets it will be so excited!


I worked on finishing some ornaments yesterday too. I love to make them. I have one more of this series, and then it is off to the santa ones for my stocking gifts for the in-laws. So far I have the eight quilted stockings and the ornaments done. I will make candies and jellies to fill them.

I got that tiny sweater and I love it every year I put it out. My bad is I do not remember who gave it to me.

Pretty orns, Boop. Those folded ones look so hard to make.

Sewbiz.....Boop, ya'll make me ashamed at my poor little pitiful snowman! I love the knitted stocking, I tried knitting many, many years ago and just could not get the coordination so cudos to you! Now Boop.....I love those quilted ball ornaments and I have been trying to make a couple on my own but my version is certainly not as crisp looking as yours! I hope I am the recipient of either one....good job ladies
