A Bluestocking Knits

Christmas? already?  Yes, Country Living‘s Holiday issue is on the newsstands.  Let’s not call it over-anticipation, but practicality and advance preparation, for one of the articles is called "’Tis the season to be … knitting!", featuring these funky stockings (sic),

and other projects from Melanie Falick’s new book, "Handknit Holidays".  (This is the first I’ve heard of this book, but I must confess that I’m intrigued, as for some time I’ve harbored secret hankerings for a knitted treeskirt.)
