Jingle Claus, worked in wool needlepoint, made up as a Christmas stocking. It is the same tent stitch used for canvas work that gets passed down a generation at a time.
Sized to hang on the mantel and actually hold gifts, not just decorate. Name tags on the cuff and it becomes the same stocking every year.
A slim, upright Santa in classic red carries a small decorated tree across an unadorned cream ground, black boots at the foot, with a clean red cuff and red piping tracing the edge. Traditional and uncluttered, the safe pick when the mantel already has plenty going on.

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. Worth buying for anyone building a Christmas box worth inheriting, or for your own house.
