Description

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!

This stripy fellow is an avid speedcuber and puzzle fiend. He is perpetually enthralled by all the physical sciences and the beauty that is pure mathematics.

He is hand sewn using one pair of socks and stands around 40 cm tall. His eyes are safe for little people and big people because they attach from inside the sock so present little chance of coming loose. He is stuffed with acrylic polyfil but just because his insides are synthetic don't think he lacks substance.

Care for us: Monkeys love attention. Take us everywhere with you and let us frolic and play freely. We don't mind having a wash when we are dirty but please make it warm, gentle and by hand.
