Sock monkeys!

Thanks I love them too. For the young friend of mine I will use chunky wool for the mane as he is almost 11 so don't think he will want it to cutesy even though he can't see it others can and I wouldn't want him to be teased so I will be making it cool and fun for him

heres my latest sock monkey - she already has a home and will belong to a very nice lady from mse who very kindly sent me some match boxes to make advent calendars (i hope she doesn't mind me posting her monkey on here before she gets it)

By the way for anyone making the sock monkey for the car I saw some suction cups in a pound shop.

I know they are all amazing. I have just contacted her through facebook to see if she sells patterns or not. Hard to type with my fingers crossed!!
