A christmas stocking is a long sock-like bag that is hung on the mantle or near a fireplace, usually on Christmas Eve, in order to be filled with gifts by Santa Claus. To draw a christmas stocking, start by drawing a curved line that looks like the letter "U". This will be the top of the stocking. Then, draw two curved lines coming down from the top of the stocking, one on each side. These lines will be the sides of the stocking. Finally, draw a curved line at the bottom of the stocking, connecting the two sides together. This will be the bottom of the stocking.
