Fold-down the white part and you can either leave it folded or sew it down or leave it up, it’s all up to you!
This step is optional but I think it adds a festive touch! To make the snowflake I just surface crocheted like I did in the previous DIY. It was kind of tricky and it didn’t come out perfect but no snowflake is perfect.
I made this crocheted stocking as a Christmas home decoration but if you want to use this as a real stocking go ahead and try it! I stuffed in a few things to see if it would hold up some goodies and it did!
Happy Holidays!
I have no crocheting talent to speak of but I love this adorable stocking!

Hi, my stitch count isn't matching yours, starting on this rd: "- Dec 6 sts, sc 3, inc 6, sc 7, Total = 30 sts" 6+3=9, then 6 inc would give 12 more sc. 9+12=21. 21+7sc=28sc. Do you then leave two st undone, or did I make a mistake somewhere? Thanks.

I revised the pattern so it should make sense now, Let me know if you have any other problems and if you make the stocking let me know how it turns out. ｡^‿^｡
