Day 1 Stocking Challenge

So, my featherweight got finished late Friday night. I took the rest of the evening to work on a little spinning, and decided to start the stockings Saturday morning. I started at 8:30 am, so I have until 8:30 am next Sunday to complete them.

I snagged a few in progress shots. At 4 hours in:

Now, I had decided already that I didn’t want the stockings to consume my life for the next 8 days, so I still had to do what I would normally do on a Saturday. So we cooked a lovely meal and I even got a nap in. Of course, by bedtime I still wasn’t quite done, but I was a bit burned out, taking time to do a little reading instead of knitting.

At 24 hours, when I woke up this morning:

But, just an hour and a half later I had a complete stocking:
