To make the stocking up, fold the knitted piece in half lengthwise to make the stocking shape, and sew the sides together, and cast on edges at the bottom of the stocking.
Fold over the top edge to finish the stocking.
To make the stocking loop, use three lengths of white wool approximately 20 cms each in length and plait them to the length you need.
Sew the cords ends inside the stocking to make a loop.
