Mermaid Christmas Stocking Crochet Pattern PDF.

An alternative to the usual Christmas stocking, this mermaid tail will look fabulous hung from the mantlepiece or from a bed post as my daughter likes hers.

The pattern has step by step instructions on how to crocodile stitch and crochet ribbing, along with photos to aid in understanding, making it suitable for a confident beginner who is ready to try something new.

The pattern is written in English using standard UK terms, with instructions regarding US terms to help those who prefer to crochet with those.

Equipment necessary:
Aran yarn
Sizes 6 & 8mm hooks (US L/11 & J/10)
Yarn needle and scissors

Uses approx 160g of yarn.

Approx height of tail (excluding fin): 37cm (14.5”)
Although I have written a gauge it is just a guide and not entirely necessary to work to exactly. The height of the tail might just differ slightly, but will still be able to hold Santa’s presents!
