Weeks Dye Works colors
The pattern looks nice, but if the listing had given the Weeks colors, I would have ordered those instead, since they are prettier than DMC single colors, although they are more expensive. The pattern lists:
Weeks Dye Works
Juniper 2158 (alt DMC 934)
Rum Raisin 1270 (alt DMC 902)
Chestnut 1269 (alt DMC 801)
Brick 1331 (alt DMC 221)
Whitewash 1091 (alt DMC 3865)
Schneckley 1223 (alt DMC 420)
AND Classic Colorworks Bandana (alt DMC 815).
You would still need DMC 3371, 3011, and 3051.
Moderators, you may want to add this to the listing.

size of Holly Quaker stocking
At 5x8 inches, this stocking will be tiny, much smaller than a standard Christmas stocking. Is that correct?
