Description
This cotton stocking brings a cheerful burst of colour to Christmas, printed across the front with a chequered lattice of wavy red lines framing little gingerbread figures, green Christmas trees, striped candy canes, pink bows and tiny patterned stockings. The background is a soft cream, and a bright red cuff with a gently scalloped lower edge runs across the top. From one corner hangs a cluster of coloured cords finished with three fluffy pom-poms in green, pink and orange, beside a cord loop for hanging. It is 56cm tall and 36.5cm across, a generous size with plenty of room for small gifts, sweets and treats on Christmas morning.
We like it best hung from a hook on the mantelpiece, though it is just as happy on a bedpost, a door handle, a staircase newel or a peg near the tree. The playful pattern sits beside traditional reds and greens as well as brighter, more modern decorations, so it suits a family living room or a bedroom equally well. Hung at the end of a bed on Christmas Eve, it is the first thing to look for in the morning. It also makes a lovely Christmas gift in its own right, packed with small treats before it is handed over, and it can be brought out year after year.
The stocking is made from cotton, with the print on the front and a plain cream back, and the red cuff runs round the opening. The pom-pom cords are gathered at the top corner beside the hanging loop, so they swing freely against the side. For care, treat it as you would any printed cotton: shake out any dust and spot clean with a damp cloth, then let it dry flat. Keep it well away from open flames and candles. When the season ends, fold it flat and store it with your decorations, ready to hang again next Christmas.
