    I've been working on these for 2 days now and have finished these 12. I'm making them from now until Oct to send to the troups. Here's the website I got the info and pattern from.

    Both years I have had nephews over there but neither has gotten any of the stockings , which is fine with me . I enjoy knowing that I am helping make someones day a little bit brighter. They also explain that some of the guys will turn around and hand them out to the children there and that is fine with me . It is to brighten someones Holiday :thumbup:
