I was about to throw this lot away after keeping them for years when the kids asked me to make sock puppets. The last time we made sock puppets the children glued everything on which, of course, promptly fell off again. This time they used needle and thread and were much happier with the results.
Kiki was happy without button eyes, just a plain sock with a horse on it.
I made this one for Googs.

Kiki LOVES dip! although she doesn't seem to get much of it into her mouth.

Those little socksies are so cute, a fun idea. I must get some crochet books and start to learn.. My grandmother crocheted me a beautiful blanket similar to this and I still have it. I would like to make one for my boys.
Beautiful children you have, looks like they have mama's eyes!
your children are adorable...and they look so wise and creative! great site, glad to have found it!
I learnt to crochet at the end of last year so that I could crochet my children their christmas presents. I love it now as it is a lot faster and more forgiving than knitting.
Thanks for the wonderful complements :o) x
such lovely pictures!
We have the same sock problem and recently turned some of the odd socks in to puppets. but as i was doing this with preschoolers we went down the glue route! And your right... it does all fall of sadly. But they got a day or so of fun out of them 1st!
Loving your creations!!
