I’m going to pick up my supplies on Tuesday for my 1st monkey. I will have your video going and taking it step by step. Thank you for such a wonderful video.
Thanks for your comment! I've been thinking of making the clothing patterns available but I didn't know if there would be any interest, so until now I hadn't pursued the idea. Yours is the second inquiry I've received and so I'm looking at options for hosting the digital files for purchase and download. I also need to figure out how best to write instruction sheets for the patterns. Stay tuned!
I would like to have the pattern for the pilot doll as my grandson is a pilot, it would be perfect for their baby boy. Please, can you post where to get it?
They will love it! My email address is on my channel's "About" page. Send me a message so I can reach you, and I will send you the patterns directly. 😊
I haven't yet tried to make sock monkey babies. The closest I've come so far is that one Christmas I made a Santa-and-elf sock monkey pair. I made the elf from size Small socks, which made him about two-thirds the height of the Santa monkey. Compared to a monkey made from size Large socks (the size I normally use), he looks about the size of a pre-teen child. Sadly, it appears that Fox River has since discontinued their size Small red heel socks, and they now offer only Medium and Large. 😢 There is still some new stock of size Small being sold by a couple of vendors on eBay, and you might find the occasional pair elsewhere. If you're looking for an "infant-sized" sock monkey to go with a regular sock monkey, what I would suggest (at least until I figure out how to make them!) is to look online for mini sock monkey keychains. These mini sock monkeys are typically about 4 to 6 inches (10-15 cm) tall, and they would be the right scale for a sock monkey baby. I used one of these years ago when I made a sock monkey in pajamas that was holding his own sock monkey. You can remove the metal keychain part either by using an X-Acto knife or a seam ripper to cut the stitches that attach it to the monkey, or by using some wire cutters to cut the very last link of the chain. I hope that's helpful! I'll have to give some thought to making baby sock monkeys from regular-size monkey socks. 🤔
Thanks for asking! I've been thinking about making them available, but so far there doesn't seem to be much interest. Do you have any suggestions as to where I should post them for purchase? Etsy, perhaps?
This is fantastic!

Yay! You are most welcome, and I'm glad it was helpful. Have fun! I'd love to see how it turns out.
Wow your ideas for sock monkeys are so creative 😁

Do you know how to make sock monkey (babies)?
