Mr. Sock Monkey showing off his muscles.

This is my first project from a new group I joined 6 degrees of creativity. I picked up a pair of socks at the dollar store and the stuffing, buttons and embroidery thread I already had on hand. It took me about 45 minutes to put together, but I do tend to work a tad sloppy. I think he is cute! I made a friend for him right after that.. its a cat...  I like the stiches showing more so ... the cat looks more handmade. These socks were also from the dollar store.. these are not domesticated but wild socks (two socks that do not match one strioed, one poka dot)...which is really the way socks should all be.  That way when one escapes through that secret porthole in the dryer you don't have to fret so much, cause it never had a mate to begin with.
