I'm back from a small hiatus with two sock monkeys I made in the last couple of weeks. January seemed busier than December and it doesn't seam to get any less busy.
While I was making Blueberry I kept thinking about jeans and the countryside. She has a warm, relaxed look and I like the dark and light blue colors together. The little hatchback was also fun to make.
Monique was inspired by Mona, which I made in 2008. To soften the black on black/pink contrast Mona has, I included grey tones in Monique's jumper and hat. I also gave the ribbing on the hat a different color; something I hadn't tried before.
Two more custom sock monkeys in the works! Plus I've been getting caught up on my knitting skills and other fun projectos thanks to this year's thing-a-day. Take a look. :)
