Quick! Hide your socks! There’s a monster under the bed and he’ll eat them if you’re not careful!
As you can see this monster only likes mismatched socks. He’s not picky on the type of sock though. He also likes to eat dust bunnies for dessert. It’s nice to be useful isn’t it?
Think you might like your own sock monster? His pattern is now available in the Joey’s House Etsy Shop or through Joey’s House on Ravelry. Sock Monster is knit in the round, on 2.25 mm needles using sock yarn of course! The pattern comes in PDF format and includes 6 pages of instructions for both the Monster and two different socks. There are full colour photos and email support from me if you get stuck.

Oh he is sooooo cute! I love him and what a brilliant way to use up left over sock yarn. Well done!
I think I’ve seen that fellow sneaking around my dryer. It certainly would explain where my socks have been going to! From the looks of his hands, it looks like he might have eaten a few of my mittens as well.
But he looks so sweet and kind. How could I begrudge him a good meal? Hand-knitted socks are an excellent source of fiber, after all.

[...] This isn’t a great picture because it was off my phone and I didn’t even think about doing a video – duh! This week was my Grand-daughter Darrians’ birthday (11 – hokey crap!) and her Daddy’s too. We went out for dinner last night and at the end as the wait-staff were singing – they both had to stand on their chairs and do actions. I love these guys, what good sports they were. There may have been a small zoo of Webkinz on the table and a sock monster. The pattern is by Heather of Joey’s House [...]
so cute
