Sock Monkey 1
We are really starting our Sock Monkeys this week. You will need to have 1 pair (2 socks), a needle and some thread in order to make your monkeys. The first thing that you are going to do is lean how to sew, so come prepared to do some stitching in your Development Sketchbooks.
In Your Development Sketchbook
You should have written an exploration of who your Monkey is going to be and how you think it is possible to create a Monkey from two socks. I asked you to think about the following things:
- What kind of character do you think your Sock Monkey will be?
- How do you know what kind of personality traits s/he will have?
- Do you think that the colour and pattern of your sock helps determine who your Sock Monkey will be?
- Draw a diagram of how you think the socks will become the various parts of your Monkey
- Once you have understood how all the parts of the Sock will become a Monkey you will draw an accurate Monkey based on your actual Socks
