SYNOPSIS
Calling All Actors! Young and Old!
A Seussified Christmas Carol is a whimsical reinvention of Dickens' most beloved Christmas story in wacky rhymed couplets. With zoot-fruited juices and binka bird geese, from Bed-Headed Fred to Timmy Loo Hoo, this tale of glorious holiday cheer is similar to something Dr. Seuss might have come up with -- if he ever had his way with the story...
With your typical Dickensy characters and some Suessical ones too, don’t be shy, come try out! There’s a spot here for you! Young and old, short and tall: bring your friends, bring your family-there’s fun here for ALL!

Machine knitting had been around for centuries by the time these stockings were made in the 1880s. There are very finely machine knitted silk in off white. The fronts are embroidered by hand with alternating open work and floral rows.
Decorated stockings like these were a delicious private treat for the wearer. She would know, though others would not that her ankles were swathed in flowers. Of course if a lucky fellow caught a momentary glimpse, there was a bit of erotic allure to them as well.
In 1589 William Lee of England created the first stocking frame or knitting machine. It was the first device to imitate the action of hand knitting. In tis first iteration it used 8 needles and could only produce a very rough knit.

These stockings were made in England and are now in the care of the Victoria & Albert Museum, London.
