I cut my pattern out of a paper bag and I bought 5 sweaters at Goodwill along with three pairs of clip-on earrings to use as embellishments. I also used ribbon scraps that I have laying around (from my scrapbook!) I spent an hour and a half on this one, even though I already know the process; and I didn't even stitch on any pretties yet! These things are complicated for a beginning sewer like myself apparently. And if anyone has any tips to make my life simpler with this project TELL ME!
Here are the steps I used
Step 1: Cut out pattern pieces
Step 2: Pin pattern pieces to sweater and cut out
Step 3: Sew pieces of each side (front and back) together
Step 4: Pin and sew wrong sides of front and back together
(because I am a beginner I flip the stocking right-side-out afterward to check my seems, I had a big hole by the "toe" OOPS!)
Step 5: Sew in ribbon for loop
Step 6: Embellish
(which I have not done yet, so sad!)
Step 7: Hang and Enjoy!
*and I just realized that I take crooked pictures apparently, and I am too lazy to edit them!!
