monkey toys
Year after year, Santa Claus will be socks? They can be a great gift for Father Christmas in Lapland, but in general are a people filled with very unimaginative. So we have a great idea to convert an old pair of socks in a pretty boring, Cheeky little Sock Monkey.
All you need is … A pair of socks in any size, needle and thread, stuffed toy, 2 buttons for eyes and a sewing machine is an advantage but not essential
Take the first sock, turn inside out and lay it out flat heel up.
Mark the center of the average of up to 4 cm below the line of the heel. With a machine Dewing, if you have one, point 1 cm from the center line and stitch down towards the transept of the mean. Sew up the bottom of the back from the center line and sew through the corrugated section to form a foot. Stitch across the center line to match.
Now, cut the center line to divide the legs.
Turn the sock the right way through the hole in the crotch of the monkey. Making light of the monkey's body and legs and sew the hole in the crotch with invisible stitches.
Place the second sock flat in lateral profile position and cut the relevant parties, as shown in the diagram.
Cola
Fold in half and sew the long side, decreasing the grooved edge to a point. In turn, things turn from the ends, and attached to the bottom of the monkey.
Mouth
Turn at the edges and the PIN of the oval-shaped mouth with the primary mono, just below the toe. Invisible stitch in place leaving a small opening. Stuff lightly and opening up nearby. Embroidery in the mouth.
Weapons
Fold in half and sew the long edge and across the ribbed edge. In turn, things turn on the edges and sew in place in the monkey.
Ears
Put two parts of the ear, along with the right side facing. Seams around the curve ear and turn right side out. Tuck the bottom in the inner ear and the ear fold in half. Tack Halfway along the bottom edge to form a crease in the ear and stitch in place next to the monkeys head.
Eyes
Stitch buttons on the front of the monkey's head above the mouth.
