For the Love of a Sock Monkey
Monkeys – particularly sock monkeys – are one of my most favorite things ever! These colors of Anzula Croquet just called to me to work them up into a sock monkey that I could take with me wherever I go, without weird looks. This shawl works up super fast and is sure to go with almost anything in your wardrobe. Don’t worry, if sock monkeys aren’t your “thing”, find three colors that you like and you will still end up with a fun and funky piece.
