"The whole difference between construction and creation is exactly this: That a thing constructed can only be loved after it is constructed; but a thing created is loved before it exists."

Sock Monkey x 2!



The Grandbaby needs a sock monkey for Christmas! I'm really interested in learning to knit toys - I'd love to do the Noah's Ark designed by Alan Dart; http://www.alandart.co.uk/products/product/80

But crochet is what I can most easily just rattle off a 3D shape in - at this time anyways - so Grandbaby's sock monkey is crocheted! And I just had to try to make one of those adorable sock monkey hats for him too!
His stocking is being put together too...I'll post it soon! :)
