Stocking

Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.

The [hand knit] stockings [that I made for Jack and Lilly] 
were hung by the [bookcase] with care,
In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there.






I made these stockings from a pattern book I borrowed from the yarn shop. They worked up pretty fast, my first time turning a heel (knitting lingo).  I have Jim's done and mine is almost finished.  More pictures soon.  Wish I had a chimney to hang then by with care.

Nice job on the stockings, but what I'm really impressed with is that your shelves are color coded.

Veeerrrry nice touch!
