My goodness! That jelly roll I bought has enough strips left for one more batch of these cute stockings (with several strips left over afterwards!), but I may be “stocking-ed out” at this point. \ud83d\ude09 I’m not sure this particular jelly roll was quite as traditionally colored as I’d thought it would be when I ordered it, but the stockings are cute anyway.

Half a strip, as used in the pattern, would have yielded a “looser” ruffle, and one I’d have had to do by hand.
