stocking
Knee-high knit garment
A stocking is a close-fitting covering for the foot and leg, typically made of knit fabric and extending to the knee or thigh.
Stockings are often sheer and held up by garters or a garter belt, distinguishing them from pantyhose.
In Christmas tradition, a stocking is a decorative sock hung by the fireplace to be filled with small gifts: The children hung their stockings on Christmas Eve.
To stock is to supply or fill with goods, and stocking as a gerund refers to this activity: She spent the morning stocking shelves.
