Poinsettia Stocking

Poinsettia Stocking - Inspiration

Through the Eyes of a Machine Knitter

This pattern is a great way to practice/learn socks on the machine. The large size and large gauge makes it easier to work. the simple repeats of the stitch pattern can be worked on any machine without a lot of fuss.

The Original pattern description refers to a Poinsettia flower, but when I first saw this, I saw knitting stitches.
This could be a great stash buster. Knit it in your choice of colors. In the original pattern, the designer includes a black and white sketch to help you plan your colors. Use markers, colored pencils or snips of yarn and make it your own.

Knit this stitch pattern on the machine

Looking closely you can tell there are only 2 colors in any row on this stocking ... soooo do-able on the machine.
Program your electronic machine, punch a card or use a Knit it Now Cheat Sheet on a manual machine.

Purchase the original Knit Picks hand knitting pattern or use a Knit it Now pattern and use ANY machine, ANY yarn, ANY gauge.
Plus your choice of sizes - Mini, Small, Standard, or jumbo.
