A St. Nicholas sock filled with goodies for a loved one

Since I only have 5 suggestions so far for who I can surprise with a little St. Nicholas stocking, but I’m sure you know many more lovely people, I’m bringing this topic over from my blog to here

Is there a special person we can bring a little joy to on your behalf with a small, generously filled St. Nicholas stocking??? Whether it’s your significant other, a nice neighbor, or a helpful coworker… just tell me why this person in particular deserves to be surprised, and I’ll send one of my hand-knitted St. Nicholas stockings and hopefully bring a little joyhttps://www.crazypatterns.net/de/items/3563/adventskalender-christmas-stocking-nikolaus-soeckchen because I had so much fun knitting for my new pattern that I ended up with more stockings than I need myself, so I thought I’d bring joy to someone else with them. After all, the true joy of Christmas only really comes from sharing. So send me your suggestions here by November 30 (please don’t nominate yourselves), and then on December 1, I’ll draw the lucky winner and send off the Christmas stocking so it arrives on St. Nicholas Day, right on time at their doorstep. By the way, a dear customer from Norway gave me the idea for these little stockings last year. He wanted to surprise his wife and three children with filled Christmas stockings dangling by the fireplace, so he ordered them from me. He had a very specific vision of what they should look like—with reindeer, stars…—and so I came up with these cute little stockings. Last year, I knitted a few more of them and gave them as gifts. This year, I’ve written down the pattern for you so that you, too, can bring joy to your loved ones. I hope you have fun knitting them, and I hope lots of you will join in and tell me who should receive a sweet, filled little stocking. Warm regards, Nici:

Dear Nici
I hope that, not just at Christmas, you receive as much warmth from others as I can sense in your words here, even without knowing you.

Soooo, my dears, my little lucky elf has drawn
and the winner is: Brixeline—or rather, of course, the person she nominated.

And this is the filled little stocking that I'll send with St. Nicholas as soon as she has sent me her address.

A big thank you to everyone who participated, and also for your kind words, Richard =)))

Oh, that’s absolutely wonderful—she’ll be so happy :-) and even more so will I *jumping for joy* I’ll send you the address tonight; I don’t have it on hand right now, and I haven’t quite memorized the new one yet. I’d also like to thank you for such a great initiative, and I wish you and your family a wonderful, peaceful Christmas season. Your good-luck elf is super sweet :-)
Warm regards from Moers

I’m so glad, Danny, that your friend was happy and that the shipment to Switzerland went smoothly ;-)
I’m sending you warm Christmas greetings, and I’ll definitely do this or similar giveaways again in the new year—it’s actually such a nice feeling to give something away and make someone happy with it ****** yeah, it really does get me in the Christmas spirit amid all the hustle and bustle *******
