Odd socks

E-mail Print PDF

Everyone has a few odd socks tucked away in a drawer hoping that the pair will show up miraculously during a wash. A really fun idea is to make sock puppets.

Just put your hand into the sock and push in the end back into your hand, making a mouth. Make little odd creatures with mismatching

button eyes or more advanced ones with sewed on dragon spikes and snake tongues from felt. If you have very odd socks, like toe socks, you can fill up the toes with cotton to create hair. Or use the toes as a glove and create walking critters.

What you need:

Odd socks

Needle and thread

Buttons

Felt (optional)
