SANTA
SWEETNESS
There’re a couple of things we
love about Yvonne Eijkenduijn’s
take on Christmas stockings, not
least of which is the candy colour
combination – such a happy break
from tired ol’ reds and greens,
don’t you think? But the main
thing is the beautiful simplicity of
the crocheted project. The eff ect
marries modern and traditional in
the most charming way. And it has
that magical innocence about it
that transports you straight back
to childhood and the unbeatable
anticipation of Christmas Eve. If
you want to capture this kind of
Xmas spirit, Yvonne shares her
crochet pattern on her Yvestown
site at http://www.yvestown.com/

christmas-stocking.What a
cute idea!
