Holiday 1 Doodle Stocking
To purchase on Ravelry, see Holiday Doodle Stocking.
This pattern uses mix-and-match micro charts to allow the knitter to design their own holiday stocking. Modular instructions include flexible options for the upper ribbing, length, and width of the finished stocking.
**Check out inspiration at Holiday Doodle Stocking Projects.**
Inspired by the festive motifs in holiday sweaters, Christmas wrapping, and Starbucks cups, all of the charts are designed to work together to create something completely unique, within an easy-to-follow structure.
Use these charts alone, or add in any other charts from the expanded Doodle Series!

Great Christmas stocking pattern
I used this pattern to knit my first Christmas stocking. It was fun to mix & match the doodles to make a unique pattern. Would definitely recommend!
Stocking
I made a Christmas stocking using this pattern for a friend�s baby. It was so much fun to pick the pattern, know it would fit into the knitting design. I have made many Christmas stockings over the 40 years I�ve been knitting and have had to adjust designs many times to fit the way I wanted - the doodle designs makes it so easy. The directions for the stocking itself was very nice and easy to follow.

I enjoyed how this doodle pattern worked out for this gift. The result is really nice. The pattern was well written.
