There is a lady on facebook with a page called QT Crafts and she makes fab sock animals including monkeys. I came across her at a Fayre and between us, me & my sister bought most of the ones she had bought with her! I have bought a few animals from her (Although not monkeys) and they are fab! She makes dinosaurs and things too - don't know how people do it, I am not at all crafty

I can highly recommend bumble bees craft den, highland monkeys and scratchy cat crafts. They have the most fab sock monkeys and other sock animals too! They all have folksys shops too I think.

Edit: They are all MSE users too. x

there are some fantastic people on facebook that make and sell, but what about asking some of the lovely ladies here on the sock making thread if they would make and sell to you xx

They have kits in boxes for making sock monkeys in The Works as well. Don't know if the sock is provided lol!

A friend of mine makes sock monkeys They're gorgeous, and if you can either find the socks you want she'll use those, or tell her what you're after she'll probably try to source them for you. There's a recent commission on there of a monkey with a football, so she could probably add one to a United sock monkey. 20% of her sales go to the Hypermobility Syndrome Association, which is a charity that helps people like me who have been diagnosed with hypermobility syndrome or hypermobile EDS, so I tend to think her monkeys are worth buying
