These would also be very cute if made into a garland to hang around a table top Christmas tree. Ornaments are so fun to make and because they use so little material, you can really get a big bang for your buck when making them.

I made one of these tiny stockings last year. The instructions were easy to follow and understand but the finished product did not turn out so well. I made mine with worsted weight yarn and it is much too thick for this small project. Also, the shape looked weird and not at all like the one shown in the picture.

The pattern is very easy to follow and they are quick to make but they are an awkward shape and size. Mine was 6 inches tall x 4 inches wide (at foot, and just under 3 inches wide (at leg) when done. I find the leg too narrow for anything more than candy canes, or other long narrow items. The foot area is very short.

JUST what I needed! I am going to make these up in red and use white eyelash thread at the top/cuff and give them out to my friends in sets to use as silverware holders for Christmas gifts. I was going to sew them with red felt, but this is even better as I already have the needed yarn! WOOHOO!

Doesn't 7.5" x 4.5" seem kinda large to hang on a tree or attach to a present? Maybe using a smaller hook (E maybe) or reducing the stitches per row or the number of rows might help. Also, having just read the article on copyright, making some changes would help there as well. Comments anyone?

This is a great little gift tag as well.... you can use up scraps of yarn too.
