Knit this lovely Nordic Fairisle Christmas stocking. It is a good project to practise your fair isle knitting skills before attempting to knit a fairisle sweater. Knitted in 2 colours of Rowan Felted Tweed, the colours are listed below:

Clay 177 x 1 ball
Granite 191 x 1 ball

PATTERN NOTE: The foot of the stocking is knitted flat on straight needles and the leg in the round on circular needles ( 25 - 30cm fixed circulars are suggested for this).
