Stockings
An item at Metropolitan Museum of Art
These infant stockings are made in the same manner as adult stockings. Upon a close inspection, it is easy to see the shaped center back seams that run under the foot to the toe and the constructed heels and toes. This miniature pair is quite appealing.
