My Sock Dolls

Aww so cute, JackyB

The santa sock doll I made was from a man sized sock, the other two were socks for children aged 9/10 ish. I made the heads from my trainer socks.

Love that, JackyB!

I can’t help thinking of some years ago, when I finally went through the ‘odd socks’ bag, accumulated for quite a while, counted 76 IIRC, did manage to pair a few up, but all the rest went to the textile recycling.

They were mostly dh’s pretty boring ones, though, so wouldn’t have made very cuddly looking dolls anyway.

I like them - what size were the socks, though? They must be man-size or if not, that is some very intricate work!

Here's a teddy I made out of one of my DGS's socks when the other one had a huge hole in it. He loved it. Made without any pattern, just dashed it off while he was staying here.

They are absolutely gorgeous!

Thank you all for your kind comments. I have now bought a new pair of socks with flamingos on, to make one for my daughter. She has a passion for anything flamingo 😁

Sick monkeys, eh Ginny?!

What a clever idea - I’d never heard of sock dolls. Yours is lovely!

Oooh I love those, what a great idea.
An incentive to buy less boring socks in the future!

They are great !
I have made sick monkeys and snowmen .
