UPCYCLED "SOCK" MONKEY

Here is the little sock monkey I am making. The first two pictures show it in progress. Actually, it's not a "sock" monkey at all, because it's not made with a sock, but with a striped cotton sweater. By the way, upcycled is a urban fancy term that I rather like. It's the process of converting a material or object into something of similar or greater value, thereby giving it a second life. (10/08). This little cutie is only about 6" high.
