The cover of this book convinced me to buy, who wouldn't want to make a gorgeous sock puppy with a patch? My sewing abilities have previously been limited to sewing some very dodgy buttons on, but the day I received this book I made a sock monkey and it was fairly simple!! The diagrams are simple to understand and my children loved the story but loved choosing which softie to make even more.

Now that I have discovered the joy of making something gorgeous with my own two hands I can't stop!

I have had this book for 2 weeks and easily created both a dog and a cat doll. They are gorgeous and make perfect presents for my niece, nephew, and me! The directions are so easy to follow and the results are amazing-especially for a newly developed crafty! Do purchase you will enjoy!

This is a very popular Japanese craft book translated into English. Perfect for all those odd socks or ugly socks that you don't know what to do with. Simple instructions and directions that anyone can follow.

I bought this for my sister-in-law for Christmas - she's really pleased with it - now I want one too!

Awesome book....make them for all your friends! Great story with simple instructions at the end.

very cute ideas, simple instructions and a great story to go with it! recommended to anyone who would like to create something from nothing!!

Excellent book. I really enjoyed making some of the softies in there, including the renamed, Jack the elephant, Kong-su-bai the doll, Snowflake the monkey & a currently unnamed cat that was part of a birthday present for another little girl! Am now currently making another little sock monkey for a friend's son... Highly recommended book... Extremely easy to sew - make great pressies for little-ies!
