    Free Corner to Corner Crochet Stocking Pattern

    3.0K shares

    This free corner to corner crochet stocking pattern is the eighth block in my c2c Christmas afghan block series. The subtle plaid color work keeps this stocking looking modern, festive and ready for a visit from Santa. This post contains affiliate links.

    This is square #8 of 9 in my c2c Christmas afghan series. Make this modern Christmas stocking block as a merry throw pillow for the holiday season, or add it to your own winter graphgan. Click to download the free, printable crochet pattern. Made with Lion Brand yarn in Scarlet, Cranberry and Linen.
    Thanks for you patience as I got this Christmas graphgan square finished. My worst crochet nightmare basically came true last week when I lost my crochet hook an hour before leaving for the weekend. One second, I had it, the next it has just disappeared into thin air. 

    “Just go to Michael’s, Jess, and get back to work!” you might be thinking. Unfortunately though, I started making these c2c squares with an odd-sized hook (a 4.5mm) which doesn’t translate well to American sizes. It’s essentially a hair bigger than a G hook. Lesson learned.

    Thank goodness for the Amazon Prime gods though because I was able to have a new hook delivered in two days. And thank goodness for my own generous thrifty gift giving because I had given my mom the same ridiculously inexpensive set from Amazon for Mother’s Day. (It’s seriously a great deal–11 hooks for $12!)

    The hook pictured here was a stand in for photos while I frantically looked for its missing cousin.

    I’m happy to report that this square had the least ripping out of any I’ve made so far. Win! I like crocheting so much more than I like ripping out crocheting…

    And I’m getting so excited to put these squares together. While I’ve disciplined myself to finish eight Christmas C2C squares at this point, I have indulged in starting a new project here and there. (Like these moccasins with flip flop soles!)

    Now if you’ve never tried a corner to corner crochet pattern before–don’t let that keep you from starting this project! This crochet graphgan is actually my first c2c project too. I watched this video by The Crochet Crowd as well as checked out all of 1 Dog Woof’s extensive corner to corner crochet resources to learn enough to get started.

When I’m adding a box or square at the beginning of a new row, I’m chaining 5 instead of the usual 6 chains. Then I work my first hdc of that box into the third chain from the hook. At the beginning of each box (after the slip stitch), I use 2 chains instead of the usual 3 you’d use with a double crochet C2C project. This has allowed me to maintain a lot of visual detail in the graphs, yet hopefully end up with an afghan that’s not too massive to snuggle under on the couch.

      I have 2 blocks done and am starting the 3rd. I am happy to say that I did quite a bit less ripping with the ornament than I did with the reindeer. I am really enjoying these patterns. Thanks Jess.

      I am seriously loving this afghan! I follow you on Instagram and have really enjoyed watching your progress. If I wasn’t already working on a blanket (and whatever else I decide to crochet) for Christmas presents, I would totally be making one of these for my mother for Christmas. I guess I’ll just make her and my mother-in-law one after New Years for next Christmas! That should give me plenty of time… right 😉

        Hey Danielle,

        Thanks so much! Lol–“whatever else I decide to crochet” is the story of my life too. Ha. I think this is a great project to start after Christmas actually. You could make one square a month for the entire year! 🙂

      I love the pattern but the link is for the wreath and not the stocking. Can you fix that?

        Agh! Haha, thanks so much for letting me know. I was crocheting the wreath when I published this and just got the patterns confused in my mind. 🙂

        I’ll update it right now!
