A wool needlepoint Christmas stocking featuring a snowman: the Snowman design. It is the same tent stitch used for canvas work that gets passed down a generation at a time.
It goes up on the same hook every December and becomes part of how the room looks. Name tags on the cuff and it becomes the same stocking every year.
A rosy-cheeked snowman in a black top hat and red striped scarf stands against a pale blue needlepoint sky, greenery and a stack of gifts piled at his feet, topped by a deep red velvet cuff. Friendly and childlike without tipping over into cartoon.

Needlepoint is patient work, and the stitch count is what gives the design its fine detail and the piece its firm, even surface. 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. A wonderful gift for hosts, newlyweds, and first-Christmas households.
