Repurposed Sweater Stocking

Itty Bitty just celebrated her first Christmas, not that she knew it. Sure, she loved the lights and the excitement of the day, but she really didn't know what it was all about.

However unaware she was, she needed her first stocking.

I finally started sewing on my machine.

Let me tell you, if I knew how easy it was to work, I would have been sewing all this time.

I had an adorable children's sweater. No, actually, I had a part of a sweater that I am glad I kept. It was found in the bag of yarn and needles from the recycling center.

Also in the bag was the pattern, but it was way, way beyond my skill level.

Perfect for a baby stocking.

Santa gave her a nice surprise!
