But because some people do not have a fireplace, people usually hang it whenever they want, believing that Santa Claus can find the sock no matter what. Well, tradition says that only the good ones will receive the good gifts and the bad children will only recieve a piece of coal. The Christmas stockings were actually called Stocking suffers back then.
Some believed that the Dutch were the ones who shared the Americans the tradition. It was in the 16th century when children from Holland hung their socks at the fireplace and “Sinterclass” will be giving them the treats by leaving it at their socks. Since then, socks became stockings and Saint woild become Santa Claus.
There were other stories and one famous one was about a bobleman with his three daughters. His wife died of an illness and after that he used his money for useless things and then they became poor.
