Surely you know this: one children's sock was lost, and the second went to the chest of drawers in anticipation of a partner being found. But usually this does not happen. Therefore, all the beautiful lonely socks in business!
Children's socks are an excellent material for needlework, especially for toys. It can be just soft toys from socks, finger puppets and toys on a stick for a home theater.
You will need:
✽ pink sock
✽ pink and hot pink felt
✽ patterned buttons
✽ two black buttons with a diameter of 1.5 cm and one pink with a diameter of approx. 2.5 cm
✽ hot pink fluffy wire
✽ hot pink checkered braid
✽ leftover pink and black yarn
✽ filler
✽ wooden stick
✽ ballpoint pen
✽ scissors
✽ wooden clothespins
✽ superglue
Socks cats: master class
Step 1
Fill the top of the toe (about half) with filler to form an oval-shaped head. Push the wooden stick through the filler to the upper edge of the sock. To fix the filler and form the head, the sock should be tied with a pink thread and tied tightly with a knot. Wrap a bright pink checkered braid on top and tie it on a bow.
Step 2
On a regular sheet, draw the motifs of the main and inner ears, using a ballpoint pen, transfer the contours to the felt of the corresponding colors and cut. Glue the inner ears over the main parts of the ears. Cut the upper edge of the sock in two places, apply superglue to the lower edges of the ears, insert the ears into the slots and fix with wooden clothespins until they dry. Glue a bow of a bright pink checkered ribbon to the base of one of the ears.
Step 3
Sew black buttons as eyes, as a patch - a large pink button. Apply the contour of the smile with glue and put a piece of black yarn on it.
Step 4
Unscrew the bottom of the sock. As a tail, bend the fluffy wire with a spiral, insert it into the lapel and glue it. Sew two patterned buttons to the sock for decoration.
