Baby's First Christmas Stocking Knitting Pattern

Baby's First Christmas Stocking Knitting Pattern, Personalised Name and Date.

Colours in the photos are a styled example; the pattern is written in red, and you can knit it in any colours you like.

A keepsake for a very first Christmas: a star and moon band, 'Baby's 1st Christmas' on the leg, and a cream cuff with the baby's name and a date line (a birth date or just the year).

This is a digital PDF knitting pattern (13 pages, UK terms). No physical item or yarn is included.

What's in the pattern:

• Knitted flat in two shaped pieces: no turned heel, no picking up
• Row-by-row instructions with a stitch count on every row
• Full-colour star & moon band chart, plus 'Baby's 1st Christmas' lettering chart
• Date-line chart and centring table (14.03.2026, 14.03.26 or 2026 styles)
• Complete A–Z, 0–9, and & letter charts with a name-centring table
• Colourways in classic red, soft pink, sky blue and sage

Safety: this is a decoration, not a toy.
