Sock Critter

A few days ago I got a book "Stray Sock Sewing" by Daniel. I love this book! The pictures are so cute, and the directions are really good and helpful. It shows how to make the simplest sock critter to a more advanced, and is a great help to help you creat your own one of a kind creatures. This is my first critter I basically copied him from the book, exept the sock of course, and the ribbon was my idea. His arms turned out a little weird, but I think it makes him look like he is asking for a hug! I had a lot of fun making him, I think it took about 2 hours to do. And I can't wait to make another one. Maybe I'll make him a sister?
Material:
Socks from salvation army. (they were brand new still in package) 50 cents!!!
Cross stitch thread (3 strands)
black ribbon
And I have my cute little boy.
My sister thought he looked like a bowling pin lol so he got the name boura. That I guess according to the online dictionarys means bowler in japanese. Well I hope you like my little critter. And come and look at other projects I put on!
