Five sizes, a fully lined body, and a contrast cuff that lets you bring in a second fabric with no extra pattern pieces — this Christmas stocking sewing pattern is built to be made again for every stocking on the mantel. It's a genuinely easy make, with a finish that looks far more considered than the effort it takes.
If you've been after a Christmas stocking pattern that's straightforward to follow and gives you a beautifully finished result, this is the one.
What You'll Make A fully lined stocking with a contrast cuff, a neat hanging loop, and a smooth curved shape that holds its form once pressed. The cuff can be cut from a contrast, main, or lining fabric, giving you an easy way to bring in a second fabric without any extra pieces to draft.
Every download includes five sizes, from a compact XS suited to gift tags and decorations through to a generous XL built for a proper statement stocking, all cut from the same pattern.
Sizes Included
- XS — a mini stocking, ideal for gift tags, place settings, or tree decorations
- Small — a sweet size for stockings for pets or little ones
- Medium — the classic mantel-ready size, perfect as an everyday Christmas stocking
- Large — a generous stocking with plenty of room for bigger gifts
- XL — an oversized statement stocking for the main event
Full cutting guides and fabric requirements for every size are included.
Fabric Guide This pattern is a lovely way to dig into your fabric stash for the season:
- Patterned or quilting cottons — crisp and easy to sew, brilliant for a classic look
- Tartan or plaid — festive and traditional, especially paired with a neutral contrast
- Linen — an unexpected but beautiful choice; our studio is Australian, so linen at Christmas feels as natural to us as a beach cricket match after lunch
- Velvet, faux fur, or faux sheepskin for the cuff — brings real winter charm, with no need to reinforce
- Calico or natural linen for the contrast — takes fabric paint or glue beautifully if you'd like to personalise with names
For the lining, cotton poplin is inexpensive and washes well, while silk satin brings a touch of pure luxury, though it can be a little slippery to sew.

Why Sewers Love This Pattern Clean seams, a simple cuff, and a loop that takes minutes to attach — there's nothing fiddly about this one, even for a first-time stocking maker.
The contrast cuff is what people come back for — swap in velvet, tartan, or a bold print and every stocking looks completely different from the same pattern.
Once you've made your first, you'll likely want the whole set — a stocking in every size, for everyone on your list.
