Basic Christmas Stocking: Colorwork Version Using Rowan Big Wool

Basic Christmas Stocking: Colorwork Version Using Rowan Big Wool

“Big, festive fun!”

We took our original Basic Christmas Stocking and gave it a big, colorful makeover! We’ve created a free adaptation for hand-knit stockings in a chunky-weight yarn—more space to stuff full of little gifts and treats—and then took it to another level with stranded colorwork. The two-color, one-by-one repeat is nice and easy and produces a fun, checker-like pattern for the foot and length of the stocking. A contrasting cuff, heel, and toe is an extra jolly touch!

Shown in Rowan Big Wool

We chose three colors of Rowan Big Wool for a big, cheery, quick-to-knit Basic Christmas Stocking. This woolly mammoth of a yarn makes straightforward stitch patterns really pop! Spun from 100% merino wool, Big Wool is an easy-to-work-with softy—so your stockings will be finished in a jiff! And with lots of great colors, you’ll have a blast playing with festive combos.

Yarn Source

Jimmy Beans Wool

Jolly Big: Approx. 8"/20cm across and 26"/66cm long.

4 skeins of Rowan Big Wool (87 yds/80m each): 1 skein each in Colors A, B and 2 in Color C.
Cuff: Approx. 55 yds/50m in Color C of an equivalent super chunky-weight yarn.
Leg & Foot: Approx. 150 yds/137m each in Colors A and B of an equivalent super chunky- weight yarn.
Heel & Toe: Approx. 45 yds/41m in Color C of an equivalent super chunky-weight yarn.

Sample shown in color (A) 43 Forest, (B) 63 Lipstick, and (C) 82 Biscotti.

US 11 (8mm) 16"/40cm circular needle and double-point needles, or size to obtain gauge in plain stockinette.
US 13 (9mm) 16"/40cm circular needle, or one size larger than gauge needle if needed to obtain gauge in colorwork (leg and foot only).

Approx. 12 sts = 4"/10cm in stockinette stitch and colorwork stitch in the round.
Note: It’s important to swatch both stockinette and colorwork in the round—you may need to go up more than one needle size for the colorwork portion.
