Mini-Stocking Ornaments

These designs combine the stunning look of silk gauze stitching with the rich colors of hand-dyed wools to create lovely ornaments for the holidays. You stitch the cuff design, quickly fashion it into a bit of a napkin ring shape and slide it onto a small wool stocking, embellished as you like.

The stockings are about 5” tall overall, with the stitched cuffs about 2-1/4” wide x not quite 2” high. You will need a bit of lining fabric for the back side of the cuff and a cut of wool about 6” x 7” in addition to whatever embellishments you choose, if any. Complete finishing instructions are included.

Stitch count is 90 wide x 73-80 high. "Trick or Treat" is fine for a beginner, but the remaining two are best for a more experienced stitcher. Scroll down for materials listings.
