Looking for Christmas Stocking pattern from 1979

Hi knitters! I’m trying to help out my Mom. In 1979, she found a stocking pattern in a magazine that had some pink pages in the middle where a pattern was located. She thinks it was either a McCalls or a Redbook. Anyway, fast forward 44 years and she wants to knit two more for grandsons. It was a mixture of stockinette on the toe and heel and garter stitch everywhere else. Does anyone know of this pattern?

Could it be this? https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/patterned-stockings

Maybe if you contact the users that have made it they would be kind enough to send you a picture of the page? https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/patterned-stockings/people

This person left notes https://www.ravelry.com/projects/kathskrafts/patterned-stockings-3

This person says she has the pattern book https://www.ravelry.com/projects/nancyg1/patterned-stockings

Unfortunately, these are not the ones. Here’s an image of my Mom’s handicraft.

I wonder if you could measure the gauge in garter and look for a similar pattern that could be adapted to the stripe pattern.

Even a pattern in stockenette could be adapted.

Maybe something like this https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/knit-christmas-stocking You would have the basic instructions but if she did it in garter instead of stockinette with chunky yarn it would look pretty similar.
