I just finished crocheting this Stocking for My Great Granddaughter Leilani Skye..,..I added 2 more Pom Pom Rows to make it a little longer because I thouhgt the way it was was kinda small for an 8 year old girl! And around the bottom of the Cuff I added 2 Rows of “Go for Faux” yarm by Loin Brand to make it look More “girly” and I made 1 Pom Pom with the Red Yarn amd I with the Faux Fur! I love the way it looks and I think My Leilani will love it too! Thanks for a great pattern that I adjusted to suit My needs! Lol
