Christmas Wood Stocking LETI948 Counted Cross Stitch Kit

This design is worked directly onto a shaped Christmas stocking rather than a flat panel: a stag, doe, fawn, squirrel, and rabbits gather in the snow beneath a Christmas tree strung with red and gold ornaments, while a glowing village and church sit silhouetted against an amber winter sunset in the background. Falling snow is picked out across the deep purple-blue sky, and the cuff carries a name band for personalizing the finished stocking.

Why this kit: a fully shaped, wearable stocking rather than a flat picture; a detailed woodland cast of deer, squirrel, and rabbits rendered in fine shading; a personalizable name band at the cuff for a one-of-a-kind holiday keepsake.

Kit includes a pre-printed (pre-stamped) fabric cut to the stocking shape, DMC-coded cotton floss, a needle, and illustrated instructions. Dimensions: 37 x 24.5 cm / 14.57 x 9.65 in.

The stocking is built up the same way as any counted cross stitch piece: following the color chart and symbol key, placing each stitch on the marked fabric with the correct DMC shade, and working section by section - the deer, the tree, the village lights - until the design is complete.

With its fine detail and shaped construction, this stocking rewards stitchers with some counted cross stitch experience, though a patient beginner can complete it too, finishing as a personalized heirloom for the holiday mantel.
