Hello just want to echo what fab creators u all are. And ask a question about the cat and dog ones please. Do u use one sock for the body and make legs out of the toe end as well as the cuff end? Then is there head the second sock sewn on? They look totally fab.
Thank u for your time

Yes, the cat one I made uses 2 socks. One is the body, front and back legs. The other is the head and tail.
Simple really.

Good luck sticky and peechy - look forward to seeing pics of your creations.

Thanks guys. I have made my first monkey but haven't got the means to put photo on. I think it looks ok as I showed it to my toddler and he said monkey so it must look ok! I'd like to try a cat or dog I think xxx

Sooo... after I posted in the early hours, I thought I'd start a monkey... dont ask why I would at that time but I didn't get to sleep tilll waaaay after the birds were chirping. Gonna finish him or her off after I get the kiddies some lunch.

Dear All Monkey Friends... Arrived here in las vegas safe and sound. did get a little stuffy in the suitcase tho but i'm fine now. I've been so busy the last few days as i've travelled to Paris-New York-Luxor-Italy and even met MANY MANY elvis presleys and real life pirates. I also saw some big lions but didn't like the way they looked at me and licked their lips,, so I scarpered pretty quick. Anyway time for a nap now as its party time tonite.
Love From
MR AMERICA

How nice is that dragon, has he got a crinkly tail as well? I can tell he's a friendly dragon tho!

Chatty123; Next time you go traveling you can sneek me in your suitcase. Glad monkey is enjoying his adventures with you.

Shelley3774: Hope you get over your tum trouble soon. And you still got three made thats dedication!!
