Sock Monkey


How to make a Sock Monkey!

Start with a pair of socks

Flip one of the socks inside out, and fold it so that the heel is facing up. Cut the legs and stitch around all of the open edges.
Round off the toes.
 Flip the sock inside out and stuff the whole thing 
with stuffing cotton
Take the other sock and flip it inside out and cut out the,
arms,ears,tail and nose
note: I cut the nose out of a white sock, that's why you don't see it on the picture 
you are suppose to cut the nose out of the heel ;) 
Sew around ears.  Sew around the arms, rounding the hand area.  Sew around the tail, making the tip pointed.
 Gather and sew the nose part, so that it is round and three dimensional 
but I forgot to do that so it doesn't look the way it should :P
I just sewed around the edge--
Turn each of the parts right-side out 
and fill the arms,tail and nose with cotton stuffing
Gather and sew the top of the head by 
pinching folds of sock together to create a rounded top,
as shown below. 
Stitch a line around the neck,then pull tightly to gather, in order 
to make the neck thinner than the head 
For the ears, nose and arms, fold the opening inside 
and stitch to the body
 Fold the opening of the tail inside 
and sew it onto the body
Use your favorite buttons for the eyes and nose.
Sew a red mouth and sew in the ears and you're done!


I saw this design in the book,
Sock and Glove
by
Miyako Kanamori 
You can find it on Amazon-- there are many other cute sock stuffies to create!

just another day

Today I am going to pick 3 random pictures and make up a little rhyme to go with each of them




 Oh little bike, all pink and white
Half in shade and half in light 
You sit by a tree
 While waiting for me
Little wren 
You think you're a hen 
Hiding out in the chicken pen!
Watermelon so juicy sweet 
The thing I love to eat and eat 
You and I in heaven meet 
What a super delicious treat!

                                  Hope you enjoyed!
