    scale the pattern up by 50% in the photocopier

    Basically 2 pieces of fabric for the outside and

    2 pieces for the lining / cuff.

    The toe is stuffed and then you can add your

    own ribbon and button loop to hang it also if

    Choose your fabrics; here I am making the smaller

    one with 2 matching FQ.

    Fold you FQs in half, as you can see it does not

    matter which way you fold the fabric long ways or

    short ways (but right sides facing).

    STEP 4

    Taking the lining/cuff fabric, sew around

    the edge approx. inch for the smaller

    socking inch for the larger socking.

    This can now be put aside

    STEP 6

    Now pin the two halves together, right

    sides facing, and again stitch around the

    edge, approx. inch for smaller &

    inch for larger stocking leaving the top

    open.

    STEP 5

    Taking the Outer fabric, place the heel pieces

    on the facing sides, pin and sew where you see

    my red lines, you can do this fancy, by hand or

    just as straight stitch.

    the bottom of the toe, it takes a little

    STEP 9

    Your pieces will now look like this.

    STEP 10

    Now stuff the toe with a little polyfill

    or even just scraps for fabric, use you

    pointed stick to push it down.

    STEP 11

    Although your lining/cuff fabric is longerthan your outer stocking, with wrong sides

    facing push lining right down inside and

    pin.

    Step 12

    On the smaller on you will have to sew

    around as the picture shows on the largerone you will be abound to put the fabric

    around the sewing arm.

    Sew a straight stitch and overlock toprevent fraying.
