    Has anyone had the 'Coffee Table' leaflet through the post from Necafe??? The person who writes it obviously gets all their ideas from this forum. They have included all of the hamper types that people are doing on here as well as instructions to make a sock monkey - not sure if the instructions are copyrighted, think it's the ones that are!!!! Easy leaflet to write, just come onto MSE and put it on paper!!!!

    Yes I got this too. Couldnt believe all the "ideas" they had.

    The latest one from me - he's a pressie for my daughters friend who fell head over heals in love with the others I'd made - I know she'll appreciate him.

    Pooky - spider monkey comes to mind, with his gangly arms and legs!!!!
  • Pooky - your monkey is great:T I bet the kids love him!

    Here is a monkey I made for a colleague for her DD:D she wanted one with either orange or turquoise in it. This was the best pair of socks I could find so looks like she's getting orange and pink. I have to say I'm not sure if I'm keen on this one but hey ho.

  • We've been bitten by the sock monkey bug, I decided to make one up and see what all the fuss was about and one of the kids I look after fell in love with it and now is attached to it whenever we are at home, funny thing is her 11 year old brother handed me a pair of his socks in a sheepish way and whispered if he could have one too..... they are infectious
