Is it really a One Hour Stocking Crochet Pattern?

Yes, at least for me it was and I am not a fast crocheter. I like to crochet a a nice steady pace. I timed myself and I work up about 24 double crochet and minute and based on how many stitches are in this pattern, the match points to the pattern taking 45 minutes for me to complete. I added an extra 15 minutes because we need to take a break every once in a while.

But yes, you should be able to complete this pattern in under an hour if you are focused. Which is incredible because it is a pretty good size Christmas stocking. Work up a 1-hour stocking every night of the week and it will only take a week to make stockings for the whole family. (Unless you have a really large family.)
