Looking for a pattern

Hi! My mom passed away a few years ago. Going through the basement, we came across a Christmas stocking she had been working on for my brother. It is 3/4's done, and I have the thread, but the pattern is missing.
Wondering if anyone knows how or where I can track it down so that I can finish it for him.

It's a CrossStitch and Country Crafts design - I might have a book with the chart. Will check and get back.

It's called Holiday Study Stocking and it's in a book titled Better Homes and Gardens Heirloom Christmas Stockings in Cross Stitch. I have the book - don't know if it is still available. It's from the mid 90's. There are nine stockings in it.

Looks like the book is out of print, but I found this on eBay:

I don't know anything about the seller, whether it's a legit or copied chart, or anything else, but you might want to contact the seller.

Thank you very much. I'd be happy with a plain photocopy of the pattern, but I see there are several magazines available on eBay. I will look through them and order one.
Thank you for the link!

I hope you find it and I hope you'll stick around here and show us your progress.

(Beware of sellers offering you a photocopy - those are usually illegal and violate copyright.)

On a side note, I've done two of the stocking in the CS&CC collections - love them!!!

Have you found a copy of this pattern. I should still have all stockings in my collection.
