Sock Doll Book Review
2009 August 16
Not a felty giveaway this time but a charming book- Stray Sock Sewing- Making One of a Kind Creatures from Socks by Daniel. This is a great book for beginning sewers. Fauna and Araina LOVE the corky creatures in this book, all made from socks.
Part one of the book is “All About Sock Dolls”
This section of the book has examples of Daniel’s many sock dolls; with fantastic and fun photos of the possibilities to sock making. The dolls are set up in the cutest scenarios with witty things to say!
Part 2 “The Basics of Making Sock Dolls”
This section includes materials, tools and great step by step instructions for basic stitches.
Part 3- “Projects Step by Step”
And he really means step by step photographed instructions! Fauna (almost 8yo) doesn’t have any trouble with the instructions. He shows you step by step, including how to stuff the socks properly, for 8 different types of sock dolls- mini doll, cat, pig, rabbit, elephant, bear, zebra and hippo.
