Hmmmm...

.... I seriously need to work on my stitching - I hadn't a clue on how to sew limbs to a body - lol!!! Anyhoo, Annie I hope this is okay - here is my January make:
Et Voila - yes my first sock monkey not perfect by a long shot think I need to change the colour of his button eyes instead of trying to match - something a bit brighter - but he'll be loved!! LOL!!


Thanks for looking (and I really dont mind if you have a little snigger :-) )

    I wouldn't dream of it. He is a very stylish Monkey. The colour buttons are just the right colour but you could add a smaller darker coloured button on top to make the pupils maybe.

    He's great! Oh don't worry about being perfect, slight imperfections are what gives character anyway and he looks great :-)
