Colorblocked crochet stockings are a fun and festive project for the holiday season. Here’s a pattern to create colorblocked stockings:

Materials you’ll need:

Worsted weight yarn in two or more contrasting colors
Crochet hook in an appropriate size for your yarn (usually indicated on the yarn label)
Scissors
Yarn needle for weaving in ends

Pattern: Note: This pattern is written using US crochet terminology.

Step 1: Cuff Start with Color A. Row 1: Chain the desired length for the cuff of the stocking. Row 2: Single crochet in the second chain from the hook and in each chain across. Chain 1, turn. Row 3-4: Single crochet in each stitch across. Chain 1, turn. Switch to Color B. Row 5-6: Single crochet in each stitch across. Chain 1, turn.

Step 2: Body Switch back to Color A. Row 1: Single crochet in each stitch across. Chain 1, turn. Repeat Row 1 until you reach the desired length for the body of the stocking, measuring from the bottom of the cuff.

Step 3: Toe Switch to Color B. Row 1: Single crochet in each stitch across. Chain 1, turn. Repeat Row 1 for the desired number of rows to create the toe, gradually decreasing the number of stitches on each row until you reach the center of the row. Switch to Color A. Continue repeating Row 1, gradually increasing the number of stitches on each row until you match the initial number of stitches for the toe. This will create the other half of the toe.

Step 4: Heel Switch to Color B. Row 1: Single crochet in each stitch across. Chain 1, turn. Repeat Row 1 for the desired number of rows to create the heel, gradually decreasing the number of stitches on each row until you reach the center of the row. Switch to Color A. Continue repeating Row 1, gradually increasing the number of stitches on each row until you match the initial number of stitches for the heel. This will create the other half of the heel.

Step 5: Finishing Switch back to Color B. Single crochet around the entire stocking, working evenly along the edges and making 3 single crochets in each corner. Slip stitch to the first single crochet to join the round. Fasten off and weave in any loose ends.

Optional: Embellishments Feel free to add any embellishments you like to your colorblocked crochet stockings. You can add pom-poms, tassels, or even crochet appliques like snowflakes or holly leaves to make them more festive.

Remember to customize the pattern to fit your desired stocking size. You can adjust the length of the cuff, body, toe, and heel to your preference. Enjoy creating your colorblocked crochet stockings and have a wonderful holiday season!
