You have joined a Sock Monkey club. I am queen or at least princess. I have sewn over 200 sock monkeys in 30 years. Each baby in the family, or for friends then for Church for the homeless children that come through for a weeks stay.
They are such happy projects! It is hard not to smile when sewing a sock monkey.
I have not seen the fancy socks in Michaels. Have not been in a Michaels for years. Fun fun fun !

You're right, Chairjogger - it's hard not to smile when you're making a sockmonkey doll or any sock doll. I had made about 30 of them for our church fair about 40 years ago. Then I made them for my kids. My son still has his, and then his daughter and now his other daughter - so that the three of them can play with their dolls together. My Homemaker's group has made them, and so have my quilting friends. Sock Monkey is a happy project!!! I think the best part is that they don't have to be new socks, nor do they have to match. The funkier the better!
