About this pattern

Every year I want my stockings to look like they came straight out of a cozy holiday movie, and this one does. It's festive, classic and just begging to be stuffed with goodies.

The stocking is worked toe up, leaving space for the heel so you can work it last. The colorwork is done in split single crochet, which gives it that dense, knit look texture and crisp motifs. It's a lovely heirloom to make for each person in the family.

Why you'll love it

  • Crisp colorwork in split single crochet
  • Worked toe up with the heel added last
  • A classic holiday look made to last for years
  • Make one for everyone hanging on the mantel

My first time doing this kind of pattern but even with my limited experience with crochet, I still felt like I got the hang of it thanks to the super clear directions and chart. This is definitely a little more advanced than a beginner pattern but I learned a lot along the way!

My daughter asked me to make this for her and I was a little leery since I had never done Fair Isle stitching. To my surprise, it was quite easy and it turned out lovely. It actually looks like I knitted it.
