The Christmas Gifts stocking is hooked in wool. The wool is pulled through a backing until the design stands up off the surface in dense loops.
One for every name on the mantel. Order a set and they hang as a family. Hang a row of different designs and the mantel looks collected rather than bought as a set.
A forest-green hooked ground carries a jumble of toy-shop motifs: a red locomotive, a golden trumpet, candy canes and a small blue wrapped present, all tangled in cream ribbon. Rich, busy and boyish, the kind of stocking that suits a house full of vintage toy ornaments.

Wool pulled loop by loop through a backing, the way hooked rugs have been made for two centuries, is what gives this piece its depth and its weight in the hand. Christmas designs are produced in limited runs each year, and wool is one of the few materials that outlasts the season it was bought for. A thoughtful gift for hosts, newlyweds, and first-Christmas households.
