    Crocheting the Velvet and Fur Christmas Stocking

    Now let's talk about this stocking! With velvet and fur, it's a feast for the senses. This luxurious look fits many holiday trends, from boho to luxe. And you can pick from any of the gorgeous colors to make your own custom combo. Customize it further with the Moogly Crochet Alphabet (worked in thread or fine yarn to fit)!

    To get this look, the Velvet and Fur Christmas Stocking features two gorgeous yarns - Bernat Baby Velvet and Red Hygge Fur. They are both incredible to touch - but a little challenging to work with!

    Velvet Yarn Tips

    Bernat Baby Velvet - get great tips for working with this yarn on Mooglyblog.com!

    The "velvet" yarns are the market are essentially chenille. And chenille doesn't like to be worked loosely, and it doesn't like to be washed in the machine. Go for solid fabrics - not drape!

    To make any project with Bernat Baby Velvet, it's important to use a smaller hook size, and close stitches, such as those shown here in the free crochet Christmas Stocking pattern. And luckily, stockings only need occasional spot cleaning!

    Fur Yarn Tips

    Red Heart Hygge Fur - get great tips for working with this yarn on Mooglyblog.com!

    As for working with fur yarns, the biggest challenge is seeing your stitches. It's important to have good lighting, first and foremost. And while I would normally recommend working over a white cloth, here we are using white yarn - so a darker cloth will help you see a bit better.

    When you are crocheting with Red Heart Hygge Fur, try to feel for each st with you non-hook hand, and pay attention to the spacing between stitches - this will be the best guide. And you may notice I haven't included a stitch count for that section - the number isn't important, as long as you're working "straight-up" from the leg!

      Hi. It is 11 PM CST on 11/1/19. The link says it is good through 11/2 noon. Everything I click sends me to Ravelry and there is no way to get the pattern for free. Can you please advise? Thanks.

        Hi Candy! There was a code on the site but that is over. The pattern is still free right here above, and you can create your own pdf using Print Friendly if desired - there is a tutorial at https://www.mooglyblog.com/print-pattern-use-print-friendly-button-moogly/ 🙂
