It is stated that all of the items will be made either of 66 percent cotton/29 percent ramie/5 percent rayon, or 100 percent cotton fabric. The item marked ST 1050 is shaped in the form of a Christmas stocking and measures approximately 4 1/2 inches long by 3 3/8 inches wide. It is open at one end and is trimmed in lace. There is a loop and a bow on the left side. The item marked ST 1080 is in the shape of a bell with a ribbon loop. The decorative lace forms an open pocket at the lower end. It measures approximately 7 3/16 inches long. The item marked NO 7 is circular shaped with lace covering one side. The lace forms an open pocket. It measures approximately 3 1/2 inches in diameter.

The "Cover", marked TV 010/2, is circular shaped, resembling a doorknob cover, with lace decorating the outer surface. The interior is lined with plastic. An elastic band is sewn around the top.
