Kick off the first week of our Crochet-along with dates 1, 11, and 21 on our Christmas Tree Stockings. Worked in the round from the toe up, diagrams visually guide new and seasoned crocheters for the British terms and embroidered numbers, while a chart is included for the tapestry crocheted tree pattern.



TENSION
Each crocheted stocking measures approx 14cm x 7cm.
Tension is not critical. A slight difference in the size of each stocking will add to the handmade charm of your Advent Calendar.
