Next, fold the squares along the dotted lines and sew the remaining edges together. Finally, work the heel into the space that’s left.
Add the Cuff to the Crochet Christmas Stocking Pattern
Attach the yarn to the top of the stocking to start the cuff. You will crochet around the top of the three granny squares. Each square has 14 stitches and 2 corner spaces, giving a total of 48 stitches (16 stitches per square x 3 squares).

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