I am grateful for sock monkeys.

I was inspired by this girl to make sock monkeys.  

Don't look too closely because 

I have A LOT to learn about hand sewing, but I am having fun!

My first sock gorilla/duck.  

(I accidentally bought ankle socks)

My 6 year old took this little beauty to show and tell on Friday. 
I am sure the other kids were green with envy. ;)

I made this one for my youngest son today. 
I am learning how to make straighter stitches ... EXCITING!  

I know, I am a nerd.
