Construction
Place both parts of the stocking wrong side facing in, so you have the right side facing out on both sides.
With the accent yarn of your choice, join 3 parts with Sc1 around, leaving the 4th part open, make sure to work 2 Sc’s on each corner.
On the upper-end Ch12 , Sc1 on each Ch back and Slst to the same st to form the strap

Secure your ends and cut yarn.
