Description

Sock Monkey [Pronunciation: sok muhng-kee] - where something ordinary becomes something extraordinary.

During the Depression, store bought toys were desirable but unattainable extravagances. Thrifty mothers, accustomed to using materials over & over, refashioned worn socks into various toy creatures for their children to play with. The sock monkey was born!

Now you can make one of your very own. These instructions have been written with kids in mind (suggested for ages 10+) so are simple and easy for anyone to follow. All you need to know how to do is a simple whip stitch or back stitch.

This kit includes all that you need to make a classic sock monkey including instructions, 1 pair of socks (as pictured), buttons for eyes, stuffing, a needle and thread. All you need is a pair of sharp scissors!
