Felted Sweater Stockings

I have been busy making recycled stockings from old sweaters, it takes a long time when you have FIVE family members! I love the way they turned out, and the way they look hanging on our mantle. It's hard to see, but D. created a very clever way to hang the stockings without putting any holes or adhesive on our solid cedar mantle! I love having a crafty husband :) So here they are, in no particular order:
the tree
stars
 snowman 
 
snowflakes--up close
and from afar

...and finally, this little birdie
 
Here they are all lined up along the mantle, with our sweet Christmas tree!
 
Oh, and one more, I made for a gift exchange--I hope she likes it!
