Sock Toys



These little fellows jumped into my hands begging to be assembled last week. Now I am looking for a child to match them with!

Hi M

These socks are too cool. Really! You know what they do in the states? They have organized retired women that knit blankets for pediatric hospitals (especially heme/oc patients). I can only imagine the joy those socks would bring a child that has to stay lying in bed, hooked to his IV.

You are talented.

I love your blog's new look :-)
If you can't find enough kids to adopt those cuties, I'll take one!

Hi Jim,

Good idea! I might make a few more and take them down to the children's ward. I haven't really got time as yet to knit blankets - but who know - in the future maybe! At the moment there are lots of other challenges waiting!

Veronica - thank you. And I will keep you in mind for a spare one. I imagine Teddy would like one, although in a cats paws it would only last a few minutes.

I love them too!! I love all hand made toys. The other day in a small crafty shop here in Florida I saw some rag dolls, they were beautifully made - and expensive!

an online shop maybe???
