Leopard Christmas: a hooked wool stocking. The loops catch the light differently from every angle, which is what gives hooked work its depth from across a room.
Sized to hang on the mantel and actually hold gifts, not just decorate. Hang a row of different designs and the mantel looks collected rather than bought as a set.
Full leopard spotting in camel, chocolate and black covers the hooked body, cut off cleanly by a bright red velvet cuff and a matching red loop. Glamorous, and a little bit of a joke. For the person whose living room already has an animal print in it.

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. These are made in limited seasonal quantities. The wool is why this one goes back into the box every January instead of into the bin. Makes a good gift for hosts, newlyweds, and first-Christmas households.
