I came across an intriguing book a the public library while browsing in the craft book section. Stupid Sock Creatures by John Murphy. I'm glad I checked it out! It's really fun to create the adorable sock monsters. The book has been out for a while so I'm sure crafters who are into plush have already explored these ideas. My daughters and I went to work... I would not recommend trying this with kids under 9. As it was, my daughters cut the creatures and I sewed by machine. Kids can do the fun part- creating the lip shapes. Kids can also pick out the sock parts and stuff the creatures and sew on the eyes. Click here to check out the Stupid Sock Creature gallery for ideas. Here are two bothers, Frederick Dockers and Jerome Dockers born November 17, 2008. We are making a special creature for our puppy for Christmas, she was very very interested in the sock creature project!
