Soft and simple, this watercolor cat stocking is lined with rows of sitting cats painted in blush pink, peach, butter yellow, mint, slate blue and navy on a cream background. Each cat is just a rounded shape with ears and a tiny face, with the paint fading gently from top to bottom.
This listing is for one stocking.

The charm of a simple shape
There are no whiskers, collars or props, just cats sitting side by side like jelly beans in a jar. That simplicity is what makes the pattern calm: the colors do the work, and the soft watercolor fade gives each cat a little glow. From across a room the stocking reads as gentle stripes of pastel; up close you notice the tiny faces. It suits homes that like modern, uncluttered decor and anyone who finds bright red holiday prints too loud. It also pairs nicely with paper stars and wooden ornaments.
Materials and printing
The stocking is sewn from polyester fleece and then printed by dye sublimation, a heat process that bonds the ink into the fibers instead of leaving a coating on top. The same pattern covers the front and the back right up to the top edge, so there is no separate cuff. A dark red twill loop, about three inches long, is stitched at the top corner for hanging. Keep it away from candles, open flames and heaters.
