Red Christmas Stocking

The stocking hung by the fire is the oldest part of Christmas morning, and a deep red one with a soft white cuff is the version everyone pictures. Roomy enough to fill properly, it looks good even before it is. The stocking is made from rich red plush with a generous white faux-fur cuff turned over at the top, and a hanging loop stitched into the back corner. The shape is classic and full through the foot, with enough depth to hold gifts, sweets and small parcels. Hang it from a mantel, stocking holder, banister, bed end or door hook, and use it for gifts on the day or simply as decoration through December. It hangs flat when empty, and stores away small until next Christmas. A few details worth noting: • Classic Christmas stocking in red plush • Generous white faux-fur cuff • Hanging loop stitched at the back • Roomy enough for gifts and sweets
