These cute little stockings with a Gingerbread Man jumping out of the top are ideal to hang on the tree or use as stocking stuffers.

The Gingerbread Man part opens so you can pop in some money or treats.

I used red yarn for the stocking and white for the toes, heels and cuff but any Christmas colour combination would be great.

I used tiny red doll buttons for the gingerbread man but you could just embroider little buttons.

The eyes and mouth are embroidered using yarn.

I chose to make a bobble for the closure rather than a button - Youtube instructions included.
