Big Christmas socks from China

In Europe and the USA, on Christmas Eve, adults and children decorate their homes, apartments and, if there are fireplaces, with Christmas socks, stockings and boots, and in the morning children find gifts in them. I wondered why socks, boots and stockings and not, for example, felt boots or tights? ;)

How did Christmas socks come about?

In fairy tales of these countries, it is believed that Santa Claus gets into the homes of n disobedient children through the chimney and leaves his gifts in socks, boots and stockings.

One of the legends says that once upon a time a widower lived in a small town, whose only wealth were his three daughters. The father was worried that due to poverty, he would not be able to provide his daughters with worthy dowries, and no one would marry them. On Christmas Eve, Father shared his sorrows with a friend.

Saint Nicholas, hearing about the poverty of the three sisters, secretly threw them a gold nugget into the fireplace through the chimney. Each nugget got into a sock, which the girls hung up to dry in the evening. This is how the tradition of hanging Christmas socks on the fireplace began. Anyone interested can learn more about Christmas traditions and legends on the Internet.

The review will be small, there is nothing special to write here. And so off we go.

Sizes of a Christmas sock from China 45/28 / 20cm. The quality of the material is excellent and they look great. In principle, we really liked the Christmas socks from China. So, if you like these things, then you definitely need to buy. Moreover, the price if my memory serves me is about 3 dollars. That's the whole overview.

Merry Christmas and New Years ...
