I assume the word you meant to use was striped stockings. Are they white and black stripes? I'm not sure you can dye them yellow because stockings are often synthetic and will dissolve in the bleach you would need to make them white first before dyeing them yellow. But if have white stripes, you could try fabric dye markers to make them black and yellow.

*strips* sorry anyway they're black and orange. I want to make them yellow and orange but bleach didn't work it only made the black bleed into the orange.

So do you have any other ideas that may help turn the black into yellow

It's nearly impossible to dye black another color. Your best bet is to get plain white and add color, but the fabric content would have to be high cotton or wool. Good luck!
