The holiday season is the time for handmade treasures. The treasures that come out year after year and bring your family joy. Did you ever make something that reminds you that the festive season has started?
For me, Christmas wouldn’t be the same without getting my heart Christmas Stocking out of the Christmas box. Originally featured in Inside Crochet back in 2015 (how has time passed by the way?!) it’s turned into one of my Christmas staple presents giving at least one stocking every year to friends and family.
But don’t worry if you missed the pattern when it was first published in the magazine. It is now available on my blog, in Ravelry and also on Lovecrafts available for purchase.
But what is making this Stocking so special?
The beautiful heart motif that gives it a special touch and also show the gift receiver what they mean to you. It’s also perfect for all skill levels. It enjoyable to crochet both for beginners and experienced crocheters. Not sure about red and white? Be bold and creative and change the colour theme to go together with your deco. Consider trying gold and cream for a more sophisticated look, or modern brights like turquoise and pink for something more playful. Whatever you choose, the heart motif is versatile enough to shine in any palette.
But where can I put this stocking?
I’m traditional and always hang my stocking on my mantel piece but you can also hand it on your staircase or even as apart of a festive wall display (especially when you live ina flat and don’t have a mantel piece or staircase readily available!).
When you get crocheting make sure that you share the finished stockings with me. I always love to see my patterns comes to live all over the world :)
May your holidays be filled with joy, love and lots of yarn!
