"The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that Saint Nicholas soon would be there."
Christmas stockings have been a key part of the holiday tradition for centuries.
Whether you hang an athletic sock, a homemade knit stocking, or a classic red-and-white one, it will surely be full of treats and tchotchkes on Christmas morning.
