    Here is Barry the Biker no2!
    You cant see it but he has a bellybutton with a metal bit in and an eyebrow piercing.....ouch;)
    Tatto with mum on it cos all bikers love their mums! Skull and crossbones on his chest.
    Red rag tied to his arm to wipe away bike grease. And painted picture of fire on back of his waistcoat. He's a big softy really!!

  • Hi everyone! I have decided to finally attempt a sock monkey!
    I'm going to buy all the bits and have a go this weekend. It looks pretty tricky but your photos of your monkeys have inspired me to have a go :D

    Hi, I just made my first sock monkey and thought I'd unlurk here and show you.

    His name is Stinky the Pirate.
