Puffing through the forest, the ubiquitous steam train carries excited passengers on a windy, bumpy ride to visit Santa Claus or maybe pick out the family Christmas tree. Hot cocoa anyone?
Train lovers of all ages will appreciate the train motif which includes the engine, coal car, coaches and a caboose.
Top down construction with an after-thought heel and wedge toe, Steamer Train Stocking begins with corrugated ribbing then moves to a stranded stockinette body. All motifs are charted. Some floats on the train are long but worth it!
