Petal Loop Stitch Crochet Stocking Pattern
The Petal Loop Stitch Stocking is an heirloom-worthy holiday make with texture that earns a second look from across the room. Worked from the toe up in cozy worsted acrylic, it stitches up faster than it looks, and the finished silhouette holds its shape beautifully on the mantel.
This stocking is built toe up, so the design grows naturally as you go. After the foot, the body repeats a four-row pattern of the Petal Loop Stitch, the signature texture that gives this stocking its soft, scalloped rows. You finish with top ribbing, an optional scalloped edge, a shaped heel, and a hanging tab made from ribbon and rivets, leather, or a simple crochet loop.
It comes in one generous size, 16 by 6.5 inches, with easy color options in solids or stripes, so you can make a coordinating set for the whole family.
