Up on the housetop


I finished my son's girlfriend's Christmas stocking tonight. This is a pattern for a stocking my siblings and I grew up with, more or less; my grandmother knitted it for us. When my kids were born my Mom knitted the same general pattern for them.
I get sad from time to time that my mom never saw me knit. In a way I'm knitting this for my mom and grandmother.
Anyway it's a third generation knitted object, and I'll be really glad to see it hanging up witht he rest of them.
