Easy Crochet Christmas Stocking - Easy to Follow Written Crochet Pattern

Easy pattern to follow

Easy pattern. I of course changed it up to suit myself. I used two rows of half double crochets instead of doubles because I like the tighter finished sock but I loved the three different cuffs to change up the look.

Loving this pattern?
