Substituting Yarn
When it comes to yarn substitution for the Cozy Cottage Cabled Stocking pattern, you have plenty of flexibility to get creative and achieve different sizes and textures. Since the stocking is a decorative piece rather than a garment or accessory, feel free to have fun experimenting with different weight yarns.
If you wish to achieve a similar size as the pattern suggests, selecting a yarn with a similar weight to what’s recommended in the pattern is a good starting point.

Tassels
Cut 30 yarn strands that are 14-16 inches long each. Cut one 20-inch length of yarn for the tassel ball and one 36-inch length of twine for tying to the stocking. Next, tie and knot the 30 strands together with the twine at the halfway point. Tie the 20-inch yarn length tightly around all the strands, creating a small ball shape. Knot and weave ends under the ball. Trim. If adding decorative wooden beads, thread them down the twine toward the tassel ball with a yarn needle. Finally, attach the tassel to the stocking by tying it securely with the twine. You can use twine or a faux leather tag to hang the stocking.
