Honey I Blew Up The Christmas Stocking

Eva's stocking is done and just needs to be felted. Do you think it might be a little ... big?

Kind of a major departure for the mini mitten maven, I'd say. Brad was saying tonight that I'd better watch out or Eva might crawl into it and get lost.

I hope it shrinks a LOT or I'll be in trouble when it comes to filling this thing for Christmas!

haha! that's like the stocking my mom knit for me! it STILL reaches above my knee if i put it on and i absolutely love it's sloppy hugeness.

just for that, i hope Eva's doesn't shrink at all. that way she can put it on and pull it alllll the way up just like i do, every christmas for the rest of her life. =)

Heather... this coves my ENTIRE leg if I put it on. The heel hits just below my knee. It's absurdly huge.
