2012 blessed me and my husband with a beautiful baby girl. Knowing that she is too young to remember hasn't stopped me from wanting to give her the very best I can. So on Jan 5th I found myself wondering how I was going to manage to conjure a 'befana' stocking out of thin air in time for the Epiphany (Jan 6th). A few Google searches and head scratches later the idea was fully formed and there was nothing anyone could do to keep me from going for it head on. I would tear an old woollen sweater apart and together with the remaining scraps of material I had from our bedroom curtain the stocking would come to be.
From the woollen sweater I used:
- the sleeves
- parts of the body
Using the bedroom curtain:
- I created the lining of the stocking
Although it was completed in time, it was filled with neither sweets nor coal... that will need to wait until 2014 :-)
