If you want to make with traditional knitting
25 mm needles are recommended for this yarn weight.
I like these:
Knitter's Pride 25mm
amzn.to/3ORXk5M

Bernat Blanket Big does not have a Christmas Red but these brands do:
Walmart -Mainstays Chunky Chenille Yarn
Hobby Lobby - Yarn Bee Eternal Bliss
Joanne had Bernat Blanket Extra in Crimson
and Bernat Blanket Extra in Burgandy

Please be aware of the yarn weights to match the size of the stockings you see here. If the yarn label recommends a 25mm needle hook then it will be the right one to match the ones you see in the video.

Bernat Blanket Big works up slightly bigger than the other brands as well as holds more yarn in their skeins compared to other brands. So keep that in mind if you are only working a one color stocking.
I used 275 grams (9.7 ounces) of yarn for the solid color stocking in the video.
