Sock Monsters


 Some socks are very odd - which is fine if you want to make a sock monster! Obviously this has nothing to do with card making and Stampin' Up!, but my older daughter, Amber, has been making sock monsters for a few years and as she was in Woomera for a week, she offered to do a class for our Craft Group.

A really cool giraffe

A rainbow cat

A two-headed monster

The monster that Amber made for me (it IS purple)

Above are some of the ones that Amber has made, some of them are quite complex. There were ten ladies who wanted to try their hand at making these and Amber had a wide variety of socks (all brand new) to choose from.

"Gracy", Morgan, Kassie and Amber

Pearl and Amanda

My monster in the making

We were all very diligent making our monsters, but some people were faster than others. I didn't finish mine until the next day, but I was delighted at the way it turned out. The design of the sock made it look like it (she) was wearing clothes.


The monsters that were created that night were varied in colour and size, but all followed the same basic pattern.

"Gracy" and Heather's monsters, with Annette in the background, hard at work.


The 'mob' of monsters, some still a work in progress, but mostly finished.

It was definitely a fun night and the monsters all went to new homes. Thank you for sharing this craft with us, Amber.

I'll be back some some more card making soon. Happy crafting.
