How to Crochet the Cat Stocking:

Using color A and 5 mm crochet hook:

*Note* For whole pattern, sl st into first dc of each round.

*Note* Ch 2 will be at the beginning of the first cluster on alternative rounds.

Rnd 1: Ch 48, sl st to first ch, dc-cluster in first ch (where you sl st’d), dc-cluster in 4th ch around. (12 clusters)

Rnd 2: Ch 2, dc-cluster in first 2 sps, dc-inc-cluster in next sp, dc-cluster in next 5 sps, dc-inc-cluster in next sp, dc-cluster in last 3 sps. (14 clusters)

*Note* the increases that we did on rnd 2 count as TWO clusters.

Rnd 3: Ch 2, dc-cluster in first 3 sps, dc-inc-cluster in next sp, dc-cluster in next 6 sps, dc-cluster in last 3 sps, sl st to join. (16 clusters)

Rnds 4-5: Ch 2, dc-cluster in each sp around, sl st to join. (16 clusters)

Rnd 6: Ch 2, dc-cluster in first 3 sps, dc-inc-cluster in next sp, dc-cluster in next 7 sps, dc-inc-cluster in next sp, dc-cluster in last 4 sps. (18 clusters)

Rnd 24: dc-cluster-dec over all 4 sps, sl st to join. (2 clusters)

*Note* On this next row you are closing the little gap left, so you will work into the front and back stitches.

Rnd 25: Ch 1, sc in first st, sl st in next st.

Tie off, the body of your stocking is now complete!

This is how the completed stocking should look.

The Cuff:

Using color B and 5 mm crochet hook.

*Note* Work between the clusters of rnd 1 of the stocking, starting where the tail is, make sure that the WRONG side of the cuff will face out, see pic.

Rnd 1: Ch 2, dc-cluster in first 2 sps, dc-inc-cluster in next sp, dc-cluster in next 5 sps, dc-inc-cluster in next sp, dc-cluster in last 3 sps, sl st to join. (14 clusters)

Rnd 6 Ch 1, sc-cluster 2, hdc-cluster, dc-cluster-dec, dc-cluster, hdc-cluster, sc-cluster 3, hdc-cluster, dc-cluster-dec, hdc-cluster, sc-cluster, sl st. (14 clusters)

Tie off and weave in tails.

The Hanger:

Row 1: Ch 25, dc in 3rd ch from hook, sk 2 chs in 3rd ch dc-cluster, *in 4th ch dc-cluster, repeat from* to end of row, you should have 3 chs left, dc in last ch. (5 clusters)

Tie off leaving long tail. Sew the top and bottom together (making a loop), then fasten to, the inside of stocking.

The Fin:

Using color A and 5 mm crochet hook.

*Note* I prefer to leave a long tail before making the slip knot, to sew the fin to stocking.

Row 1: Ch 15, dc-cluster in 2nd ch from hook, *in 4th ch dc-cluster, repeat from* to end of row, you should end with a cluster. (4 clusters)

Row 2: Ch 2, turn, dc in first st, dc-cluster in next 3 sps, dc in last st. (3 clusters)

Row 3: Ch 2, turn, dc in first st, dc-cluster in next 2 sps, dc in last st. (2 clusters)

Row 4: Ch 2, turn, dc in first st, dc-cluster in next sp, dc in last st. (1 cluster)

Row 5: Ch 2, turn, dc in first st, sk 1 st, then dc in next st, dc in last st. (3 stitches)

Row 6: Ch 2, turn, dc3tog in remaining 3 sts. (1 stitch)

Tie off.

Faux Fur on the Fin:

Using color B and 5 mm crochet hook.

Beginning where the foundation ch is, pull the faur fur yarn through, and ch 1, sc to the “point” then sc 3 into the point, then sc down to complete the fin.

Tie off, weave in ends! Using the long tail you left, on the fin, whip stitch the fin 6 rounds from the faux fur yarn, and 9 stitch around.
