Well I thought I should start the 2020 thread for the mini Christmas stocking drive for Warmth for Warriors (W4W). I've been heading up this charity stocking drive for several years now here at Crochetville. Each year people crochet, knit, or sew mini handmade Christmas stockings for the troops. Stockings should be around 6 inches long and any pattern style or color is accepted. Stockings that are a little smaller or larger are okay too.
The miniature stockings are filled at W4W Headquarters with soaps, toiletries, and candies for overseas to our troops as a little Christmas gifts. The little stockings filled with goodies are a wonderful way to say thank you to our troops and give them a little Christmas cheer during the holidays. We also need donations of the little motel sized soaps, shampoos, chapsticks and other small items for stuffing the stockings.

Mini Cuffed Christmas Stocking
Deadline for shipping stockings to Warmth for Warriors and delivery to them is November 1, 2020. It's never too early to start making these little stockings for the troops. We need lots of the mini stockings. Last year over 3,000 stockings were received by Warmth for Warriors. So get those hooks out and let's make some Christmas stockings for our troops.
