Christmas Applique Crochet Roundup

I have never been a fan of Christmas stockings that you can buy at the store.  They just seem so - well, duplicated and unoriginal.  If you're like me, your home is filled with handmade decor throughout the holidays to add a personal and welcoming touch.  Having little kids around is also magical through the Christmas season.  Their excitement and joy is so fun to watch!  

With all the Christmas Tree Skirt crochet patterns that I've designed (found HERE), I've wanted to create coordinating Christmas Stockings but haven't had the time.  A few weeks ago, I had an "Ah Ha" moment and decided that for the joys of little kids, I needed to design a Basic Christmas Stocking that would be easy to customize.  It may be hard to find just the right Christmas stocking that every little child wants as theirs but we have SO many wonderful Appliques that can help solve that problem.  ​

Below are some terrific options to use to create your own unique Christmas Stockings using my Basic Christmas Stocking crochet pattern that can be found HERE.

My Basic Christmas Stocking is about 7" wide so you will need to watch the size of yarn used for the appliques to make sure they'll fit.

This is also a great project to crochet for service if you're looking for something to work on throughout the year.  You could create a fun variety of Christmas stockings to donate to the homeless shelters or foster care to brighten their day.  

​Whatever you choose to do, I hope you'll have fun crocheting your own personalized Christmas stocking!

Golden Lucy Crafts has these darling little gnome Santa characters that would be cute to line the top of the stockings.  
I LOVE the Heart in the center of their snowflake too!
