<\/p>\nShe’s the queen of chunky knits, but even Lauren Aston couldn’t have ever dreamed her knitting masterpieces would become a staple of pop culture royalty’s family Christmas.<\/p>\n
Eight years ago, the Devon-based knitwear designer was stunned to discover her hand-made Christmas stockings were bound for the home of David and Victoria Beckham.<\/p>\n
“I was knitting them out of my spare bedroom in my house because I’d just started my business a few years before.<\/p>\n
“I didn’t notice at first. [The order] came in under a different name and I spotted the email address was ‘somebody @victoriabeckham.com.’ I thought ‘could it possibly?…'”<\/p>\n
For the self-professed Spice Girls fan, who runs the company Lauren Aston Designs, her dream was about to become reality.<\/p>\n
“They ordered large stockings originally… so we had an email back from the person who had ordered saying ‘actually we love them but they’re a bit big to hang on the mantel, can we swap them for something small?’<\/p>\n

“I said of ‘course you can’, then I had to guts to say ‘I had noticed your email address and there were six stockings. Just to say we’re very excited at the prospect it could possibly maybe be for our favourite family.’ The person said nothing, lips absolutely sealed.”<\/p>\n
Aston heard nothing for weeks, before being stunned by an Instagram post from Victoria Beckham that revealed her eye-catching stockings hanging above the fireplace.<\/p>\n
Nearly every year since, the stockings have made an appearance on the Beckhams’ social media accounts.<\/p>\n
Aston told Breakfast her team’s always “on the edge of their seats each year to spot them.”<\/p>\n
“It feels like such a testament to the products,” she says.<\/p>\n
Not a bad endorsement from two of the most stylish people on the planet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"She’s the queen of chunky knits, but even Lauren Aston couldn’t have ever dreamed her knitting masterpieces would…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":355029,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[64,63,99,447,134,98898],"class_list":{"0":"post-355028","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-celebrities","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-business","11":"tag-celebrities","12":"tag-entertainment","13":"tag-uk-europe"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/355028","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=355028"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/355028\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/355029"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=355028"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=355028"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=355028"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
