Description Here is a simple tutorial on making the owl - sock doll.
I find it's easy to make even for a beginner.
I didn't go on details on the sewing part, eg: what kind of stitch, how to sew etc. Just use simple stitch to sew.
Anyway, if someone need to know more details on certain part, just give me a note.

If someone has used this tutorial and make out something, please let me know, I want to see the result.

Enjoy and try it out~
(My very first tutorial.... )

Latest News:-
Yes! I have made a site and will be putting all my sock doll tutorials there. So far I have only two tutorials... but will slowly make more and up put to the site. I am thinking to put more things on the site too, a gallery of my sock dolls, selling my sock dolls etc.
Feel free to take a look and leave me some suggestions or comments if possible. Many many thanks~

I sew alot, so I get it, but other inexperienced sewers would have no idea what is going on.

yaya, I noticed that too, but I am just too lazy to make a detail tutorial. Those who really don't know some of the details, they are very welcome to ask me, and I will try my best to help.
But, still have to say "sorry" for not making a detail tutorial.

OIC I'm just so intrigued by the cute buggers!
I made a knitted rabbit yesterday, and showed it to my friends at school. I'm nao selling them $5 a piece!
I love craft.
Erm, what is an ebook?

An 'ebook' is an electronic (or digital) version of a book. You view the book on computer.

I love craft too. Can I have a look of your knitted rabbit? I am going to try some knitted dolls too. ^_^

I think part of my problem is that I'm a cheapskate and only would want to use dead socks. Not something so nice and new and clean. But he's really cute, so I'm going to try to see if I can swing something with my next pair to die

wait how do close it like that?

httpecho In reply to Blitzergeldert [2008-11-09 10:33:23 +0000 UTC]

Ok. follow the step 9, stitch around the bottom, then pull the thread to close it. you need to hold it firm and stitch a cross to close it nicely.
You may take a look at this -->[link]
you can see how they close the strawberry, it's exactly how I close my doll's bottom.

After you sew in the details with the embroidery thread...where do you tie the thread off to secure it?...

httpecho In reply to raeraethejetplane [2008-10-04 10:47:27 +0000 UTC]

you mean for the eyes and the feathers on the body? I started my thread and end my thread all at the bottom of the body. so you will need a longer needle to do that.
