These outstanding Christmas stockings are all hand knitted in soft organic cotton. They measure roughly 65cm/25.5 inches tall, and 18cm/7 inches wide. There are fifteen designs to choose from.

The stockings are hand made by a knitting community we launched in Southwest China more than fifteen years ago. The wonderful knitters there are highly-skilled artisans, producing these toys with great care and love.

The stockings are not lined, so they do have some stretchiness to allow for odd-shaped gifts from Santa.

To identify your chosen stocking match the stocking name shown in the photographs with the name in the dropdown list. To have the Christmas stocking personalised, choose the 'named' option from the dropdown list.

We personalise the stockings using a leather tag. Vegan leather is also available on request.

We often get asked why we do not offer to embroider names straight onto the stocking. Our answer is that most of the embroidery that you see is done with a machine, but it is impossible to machine-embroider hand-knitted stockings of this high quality. We would love to hand-embroider each stocking, but we don't have the time.

However, if you would like to hand-embroider your own stocking, please let us know and we will include some matching yarn in the package, so that you can.

Our leather tags are made to last, as are our stockings, so when you pass the stockings down from one generation to the next, you can just remove and replace the tags.
