Hang some handmade holiday magic on your mantel with the Classic Christmas Crochet Stocking—a timeless, beginner-friendly pattern that’s as joyful to make as it is to fill!

This festive staple measures a generous 17” long, featuring a smooth construction worked entirely in double crochet stitches for that plush, textured feel without the bulk. Start from the rounded toe and crochet straight to the cuff in one piece.

Perfect for crocheters of all levels, this pattern shines as a blank canvas for your creativity: Add stripes, embroidery, appliqués or pom-poms to match your holiday vibe, or keep it classic in red, green, or neutrals for an elegant heirloom. It’s sturdy enough for Santa’s deliveries yet light as fresh-fallen snow, making it ideal for family sets or thoughtful gifts.

Approximate finished size: 7” wide at cuff x 17” long
