Day 18---Stocking pattern done

By the title you may think big deal huh......
I was of the thinking the very same, a quick scribble would have done it!!!!

More the fool me, this lovely stocking....
Took me an 1h 15mins to get semi right.....
I still think i need to shorten the foot bit & thin it out too????
I'm fishing for an opinion there!!!
Constructive criticism welcome.....

I really wanted to make a stocking that had a nod towards vintage... With the slightly pointed toe & a bit of a heel too it. Reckon it should stand out from all the straight rounded toes out there!!!!

Well I'm off to start stitching in the ditch!!!!
Wish me luck

Amended - I have decided to shave a 1/2 inch off the foot.... It has made all the difference
