My first sock monkey!  Sort of.  Not having easy access to shopping (or selection) you have to get creative with gifts around here.  The son of some co-workers turned 1 yesterday and I hummed and hawed as to what to give him, finally deciding on the one thing every kid needs to grow up with - a sock monkey.  I didn't have a pattern, and my only wool socks were a pair I always keep on hand to remind me of home...so unfortunately Levi only got a monkey head for his birthday.  Thankfully, being only 1 he won't realize how weird that is for several more years.
