Sock Monkey


I have wanted to make a cute little sock monkey for a while now, and over the weekend found these awesome socks that were just screaming sock monkeys!!

I followed the instructions at http://www.web-goddess.org/writing/tutorial/Image0.html which are brilliant and easy to understand.

Not entirely happy with my first attempt - he is a little bit wonky but still very loveable and snuggly.  I didn't use button eyes as have two under 3's at home, and he hasn't got a mouth.  Think I will put one on him eventually.  Have made a start on two more so hopefully with a bit of practice they will come out a bit better.  Still, he has pleased the kids and that is what matters!
