Wheat Stitch™ Mini Stocking Crochet Pattern
Add the perfect handmade touch to your holiday season with the Wheat Stitch Crochet Mini Stocking! These tiny stockings work up quickly from the toe up and are packed with cozy texture thanks to my signature wheat stitch. Whether you’re making one as a gift card holder or stitching a whole set for a DIY advent calendar, this pattern is designed to be simple, satisfying, and totally display-ready.
You’ll start by crocheting the foot, then shape the heel as you go—no extra steps or attaching later. Continue into the main body to showcase that beautiful wheat-stitch texture, and finish with classic top ribbing for a clean, polished look. Add your twine bow and hanging tab for the perfect final touch.
These mini stockings are ideal for gift card holders (with printable gifting tags included!), Advent calendars and countdown garlands, tree décor and mantel displays, and fast holiday makes for markets, gifting, or stash-busting
Whether you make one or many, these tiny-but-mighty stockings bring instant festive charm to any space. Quick to crochet, easy to customize, and adorable everywhere they go—your mini stocking is ready to shine!
