"My monster making obsession started when I made a sock monkey for my friends' new baby. I then started to adapt the pattern, added some horns here and some fangs there. What I ended up with was a collection that I could only describe as a random selection of 'sock monsters'. The thing is, they kind of took over the house, and before they formed a union and took over the rights to the fridge I thought I better do something about it. So thats when I started finding them all homes and set up my website dedicated to that job. Well that was 2 years ago now and the monster shapes keep evolving. I haven't been more than a few feet from my sewing machine since, well, apart from going out to buy more socks!"
