let’s get crafty

Do you have a sock?

From one sock you could make yourself a lovely doll! Cute little thing for you to gift or just try out as a different technique.

Cute doll from a sock!

Pinterest ideas…

Toys made from socks is not a novelty. It has been done over and over again! From socks you can sew so many beautiful things: owls, rabbits, little monkeys, elephants and anything you could think of! For a long time now my Pinterest account had boards for ‘Toys from Socks’. In order to prep myself for the process I even got some tiny socks! 🙂

However, recently, I was going through my Pinterest, looking for ideas and cute things, my eye had been caught by these dolls, made from socks! It looked so easy and fantastic, very warm, cosy and cute, just how I like it!

What will we need?

We will need:

tiny socks
stuffing
threads
needles
scissors

Step 1

Stuff the sock with stuffing, and once it looks that it is enough, sown it up.

Step 2

All that is left now, is to form legs, arms and head with the thread and a needle. It turned out quite nice, and it already looks like a very cute doll! 🙂

However, we still need to stitch a cute face too. So, I’ve decided to stitch out a dreaming doll face. Reasoning was simple, when babies are sleeping they are usually smiling, right? 🙂
