Is he gone?
I've been working on some super secret knitting for Christmas. Luckily, Mike has been spending nearly 12 hours a day working with the marching band at a local high school for his student teaching, so I've had a lot of time to knit when he's not around.
I wanted to knit him a stocking last year, but just didn't have time. This year, I am much less dedicated to my schoolwork. And, I received a gift of red and green wool yarns, one skein of each. Perfect for a stocking!The pattern is the Falling Snow Stocking from Jennifer Hoel. I'm making a few modifications: contrast band with Mike's name in white, short row contrast heel in green, and continuing the small snowflakes down the foot. I'm also planning on a contrast, perhaps short row, heel.
Mike finishes marching band this weekend, so I'm knitting my little heart out to get this done!

That is a great stocking! I have been lurking for a while and i am very impressed with your knitting.
Very nice! I've thought about making stockings before. I like that pattern, esp. the fact that you put his name in it. Impressed.
