This easy crochet stocking pattern makes a large, beautifully textured Christmas stocking. The Snowball Stocking is worked in a pretty shell stitch that shines in both solid and variegated yarn.

It looks lovely in a soft neutral like sage and cream, and just as beautiful in a bold variegated yarn, where every shell shifts through a different color combination. Finished with a crocheted tie and two fluffy pom poms.

Cozy, festive, and fun to crochet — the kind of stocking that comes back out of the box year after year.

🎨 MAKE IT YOUR OWN

Work it in soft neutrals for a farmhouse look, in classic red and green for something traditional, or in a bold variegated yarn so every shell comes out a little different. The contrast cuff, heel, and toe make it easy to use up smaller amounts of a second color.
