Melody's First Christmas Stocking
I wanted Melody's first Christmas stocking to be something special. I wanted it to be a smaller stocking so that in future years we could include it on our Christmas tree. That is where Brad's mom keeps his and his brother's first stockings. I thought this was a neat idea. I also wanted something with meaning. Sure, I could go buy a stocking, and I did originally. We have a "First Christmas" stocking that I found at Hobby Lobby that works with our decor, but I still wanted something more. So I decided to crochet Melody a stocking. I found a very, very useful video on youtube. I did one stocking, but half way through it looked awful! So I started over. It took me about 3 days to finish it. That does seem like a long time, but I have a 6 month old! And I really only worked on it at night when she went to bed for an hour or so at a time. I am even considering making full size ones next year for all 3 of us! Check it out below.
