FS ~ Are the names on the stockings knit into the pattern? If so, you could just knit it plain without a name and then hand-embroidery her name onto it in a smaller "font". There's a product called "memory thread" that you might be able to use to shape the letters first and then just tack them down to the stocking.
CCS: I'm within spitting distance of finishing the June owl. I've kitted up the July owl to take along with me to the lake. I still need to do the June and July cats, but, although they are smaller charts they will take longer to kit up as I need to select my own colors, so I'll hold off on those till I have more time. I also need to find fabric for a small fox CCS chart I plan to stitch up as a birth record for Valentin. I haven't decided on ornaments for DGKs (4), and they could be CCS also.
Knitting: I've got my current prayer shawl to take to the lake and can knit it on the way there. I've also got a pattern for a cowl that I'm enlisting a friend's help with. I've never had a pattern that I can't figure out, and maybe if I studied and experimented and Googled, I could do it myself, but she's had some experience with something like this, so she's working it out for me. We're going to get together when I get back from the lake, so she can give me some help with it. I need to do the cast on first, though.
