DIY Upcycled Sweater Stockings
"Learn how to upcycle a sweater into a beautiful Christmas stocking. Add trim for unique details on these DIY sweater stockings. I love seeing stockings hanging up to welcome the Christmas season. It’s an old tradition, and my family loves. Using this sewing tutorial you can turn sweaters into beautiful stockings. Add trim in matching colors or even a rainbow design. The hard thing about making and having stockings when you have a young family is that if you use specific fabric it won’t be around when the next kid comes. Do you care about having stockings that all match? It tooks me years to decide on stockings to make because I didn’t want to remake stockings if I had more kids. I came up with the idea to make sweater stockings because I’ll always be able to find sweaters at thrift stores. If you don’t use the exact same sweater it’s always easy to add another stocking to the collection."
