The Dove and Gold Swag Christmas Tree stocking is worked in wool needlepoint featuring a Christmas tree. Wool needlepoint has a firm, flat surface that lets the design read clearly from across the room.
It goes up on the same hook every December and becomes part of how the room looks. Hang a row of different designs and the mantel looks collected rather than bought as a set.
A tall evergreen hung with red, blue and gold baubles rises from a stack of toys on a deep burgundy needlepoint ground, a white dove and gold snowflake at either shoulder, under a red cuff. Dark and formal. The most candlelit-looking of the tree stockings.

The canvas is covered stitch by stitch in wool, which is what gives a needlepoint piece its fine detail and its firm, even 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 the family that unpacks the same decorations every December, and a good reason to keep one yourself.
