I spotted these gorgeous stockings on the B&M website recently
www.bmstores.co.uk/products/knitted-alphabet-christmas-stocking-assorted-letters-347672
Went along today to try and get them, but the only letters left in stock were N and I, no use to me as I wanted J, T and M!
I've been googling alternatives but haven't found anything similar that doesn't cost an absolute fortune.
I've even thought that if I could find a similar type of stocking (knitted, and either fair isle or striped) then it wouldn't absolutely have to have the initials as I could add them myself. But I can't seem to find that kind of stocking anywhere! I've looked on John Lewis, Debenhams, M&S, Amazon, eBay, nothing coming up that matches what I'd like.

Has anyone seen anything similar, either with or without initials?

Thanks for the suggestions - the Jojo ones are gorgeous but sadly way out of my price range!
The Liberty ones are OOS anyway but still a bit on the pricey side.

But thanks anyway.
I'll keep searching!

Not be an idea to buy them and see some red material over the top with the initial you want on? X

I picked a couple of these up in my local Sue Ryder charity store - at the bargianous price of £0.99.
They had loads of brand new ones. Worth a look if you have a store near you? There was a second design as well, I think.

Can anyone suggest an alternative to this stocking please?

Thanks Minty, the first one of those three is not too expensive so could be an option...
Cold they look ideal! I wonder if we have a Sue Ryder shop, I've never actually noticed one but I'll have a quick google!
Cheers for the help.

Not got letters on but similar style. Could add letter iron on patches like these:

sohypnotic that's a great find, as the letters look pretty similar to the B&M ones! Thank you. If I don't find the ones I'm after soon, I think I'll go down that route!
