    Hi All

    Just thought you would like to see the sock monkey I made for my nephew's birthday. He really liked it and despite his cool 11 year old friends being there when I gave it to him they loved it too. I knitted (1st attempt) the scarf and hat and made the bobble to go onto the hat. I adapted a show pattern to make footy boots and added the newcastle pin badge. I also glued the football to a piece of velcro so the ball can be taken off.

    I had so much fun making him, need to finish the girlie ones now.

    oops he is a bit big sorry.

    I thought I would have a go at these too. They are lovely and will make great presents for my kids at christmas.

    Here is my first attempt

    Oh she's soooo pretty!!! Would love to make one - or even just to have one of these myself!!! Just wish I could sew and had some patience - something tells me these would be tooooo fiddly for me and I'd end up with a housefull of blue air!!!
