So here is Day 1 of Ornie Challenge 2012!
How cute is a little Granny Square Christmas Stocking??? Complete with a candy cane! I found the pattern at Eating Out Loud. They work up quick and easy and there is a great photo tutorial to follow along with the pattern.
In fact, the pattern is so fast and fun...I couldn't stop myself!
Then I started having fun and mixing it up!
I was working on these in the back of our church while our oldest was going through some training to be an Altar Server. One of his best buddies since forever came back to chat and he was fascinated by the entire crochet process. "How do you do that? Do you think I could learn? These are so cool! Hey, everyone, look at these!!!" He was so sweet (he's always so sweet) I decided to make one for him. And his little brother. And his two little sisters. And then my three kids. Like I said...I'm addicted...
Love Them!!!

How cute are these? I've been making granny squares for years but I've never seen them used to create cute stocking ornaments! I'm hosting a homemade holiday party with prizes and I think this project would be a great one to share. I'd love if you'd stop by.
