Reply Angela October 12, 2024 at 2:36 pm Hi I managed to make the stocking. I would like to make one a little smaller…am I best to start with less stitches or smaller hook? Also I’m not very good at the completing of it, so I’ll need to work on the edges. Thank you it was so easy to follow for a newbie. Reply Angela October 21, 2024 at 9:08 pm Super, thank you.
