How many Granny Hexagons do you need?

Joining the Hexagon Granny Squares

Lay the hexagons out as shown in the picture and single crochet the edges together, leaving the two seams marked with black lines open. 

Assembling the Christmas Stocking Crochet Pattern

The colored edges on the hexagons are your guide for assembling the stocking. Simply match the colored edges — for example, a blue edge on one hexagon should be stitched to a blue edge on the next hexagon. Use a single crochet stitch to join each seam. 

Adding the Stocking Loop

To add the hanging loop, single crochet into the three middle stitches for 15 rows. Fasten off, then sew the end of the loop to the cuff.

Finishing the Christmas Stocking Crochet Pattern

Weave in all of the yarn tails.
