A luxurious extra-large Christmas stocking, hand-knitted for you in a traditional style in either red, green or cream natural wool, embroidered with a name of your choice.
This gorgeously cuddly stocking is knitted in soft, natural wool with a fluffy cream cuff and fluffy cream pompoms dangling from the end of the hanging loop. It is knitted from a real sock pattern with properly turned heel and toe and is wonderfully stretchy, meaning it will accommodate all sorts of oddly shaped presents!
The body and writing are 100% pure Peruvian Highland wool. The fluffy cuff and pompoms are an unbleached boucle Alpaca-Merino mix yarn.
A wonderful Christmas gift for a son or daughter, or newlyweds or parents-to-be. Why not get a set for the whole family to hang by your fireplace?
PERSONALISATION OPTIONS:
If you would like embroidery, in the "Add your personalisation" box, please type the name you require (e.g. "Anna"). Due to the style of writing, the name will be embroidered in lower case starting with a capital (e.g. Anna, not ANNA).
***If no name is entered in the box, and no other communication is received from you, you will receive a plain stocking with no writing on, even if you have paid for embroidery***
DIMENSIONS:
Tip to toe: 63cm/25"
Across leg: 17cm/6.5"
Note: knitted things are stretchy and if there's anything particularly heavy in it, your stocking may well reach the floor!
COLOURS: Please note that the apparent colour of the product may vary according to monitor differences.
Red - a deep wine red
Green - a rich forest green
Cream - a warm cream (unbleached, undyed wool)
WASHING INSTRUCTIONS: hand wash only
ECO-CREDENTIALS: this stocking is an investment in the future as it can be re-used for years (possibly decades). It is also made from pure wool which is ultimately biodegradable and much kinder to the environment than manmade yarns. (The fluffy wool contains 5% nylon for strength, but this is only a tiny amount - each stocking uses under 20g of this wool, so the amount of manmade material is under 1g.)
