What is a "sock monkey"?
A sock monkey is a handmade doll created from a pair of socks, typically made of knitted cotton, and often featuring a sewn-on face, arms, and legs. The doll is known for its simple yet charming design, with its most recognizable feature being its long, tubular body and button or embroidered eyes. Sock monkeys have been popular in North America since the early 20th century and were originally crafted from red-heeled socks. They are often seen as nostalgic, vintage toys and have become collectibles for their classic, homemade feel and whimsical appearance.
