PATTERN NOTES
Knit Version:
This stocking is knit in the round from the top down and features an afterthought heel. The cuff is folded inward and tacked down by working live stitches together with the cast-on edge (instructions are given for sewing this down instead if desired). An I-Cord is added during finishing to hang the stocking.

Crochet Version:
This Stocking is made cuff-down in the round with an afterthought heel. The Cuff is made first and worked flat in turning rows then joined with a seam. The Stocking Leg is then worked along either edge of the Cuff in continuous rounds. The first round starts with sc and changes to hdc to build gradual height for a smooth transition to the continual rounds.
