Bobble Crochet Stocking Pattern

This Bobble Crochet Stocking Pattern is so festive and cute! Because of the bulky weight yarn, it works up surprisingly fast. This stocking is a good size and can hold LOTS of goodies from Santa!

This pattern calls for bulky weight yarn and a J/6.0 mm hook. But worsted weight yarn could definitely be used. I would go down to an H/5.0 mm hook and your stocking will come out slightly smaller than the pattern suggests.
