❄️ The stocking Santa will fill first. (Probably.)

This classic stocking is covered in cozy Wheat Stitch™ texture and worked from the toe up for a polished, seamless finish. It’s the timeless kind of handmade decor that comes out every single year.

Make one as a gift or stitch a whole matching set for the family. Personalize each one with tassels, pompoms or tiny bells.
