irishgirl62

I am so excited!!!:j:jI found an easier way of turning the arms tails inside out and to stuff them ... I remembered about turning legs out of raggedy dolls and tried the same method with the tail of the sock monkey and it worked like a dream!then I decided to try and stuff it using the tube and it worked!!!!!! i used a hollow tube and long wooden stick will try take pictures of it and show you cos its to difficult to explain off doing the happy dance!:j:j:j

I was out today and seen these socks reduced to £1 and the child socks aged 3-5 for my DD who wants a car sock monkey like mine but it has to be pink and white and these socks has three buttons on each leg which i could use for eyes!
