If you want a truly handmade sock doll, you can certainly make your animals without a sewing machine and stitch them together by hand (it would just take a few hours). The size of your sock animal will depend on the size of the socks you use. Baring in mind it's just as much work crafting a mini sock creature as a big one. I find it easier working with larger socks than tiny ones but mini monkeys sure are cute. If you plan to make a classic looking monkey doll or elephant, you'll be needing Original Rockford Red Heel Socks made by Fox River Mills. Sock dolls really are wonderful gifts to craft and they last for years and years.....
