Andrea, could you post a pic of your monkeys so mine will match? If we're aiming for sock monkey as STP ID, some similarity might help!
StP family IDs - Sock Monkeys!
- Thread starter Andrea Van Scoyoc
- Start date
@Andrea Van Scoyoc of course you can use anything from StP you like, I've borrowed most of it from other sources, so it would be weird to say no!
i agree that the stp logo or letters should be on them somewhere to remove all doubt when seen!
i really need to come up with a stp logo...

Actually...do you think they should match?
I don't.
We're all different and misfits, so shouldn't our monkeys be too?
I figure we'll just identify each other by the StP logo.
Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks, Matt!!! I'm really excited about this and can't wait to get started.
I just have to get more socks... been coming my drawers and I'm out.
Darn my anti-hoarding, sometimes.

Sign me up. Private message me when you need an addy. I'll be at the flea market tomorrow so I'll keep my eyes open for socks. Also, I have a friend who works at the Goodwill warehouse, so I'll ask him to put socks on his radar.
Andrea, You're totally right on the matching issue. I hadn't thought of it that way.
@MattDerrick, have you thought of perhaps asking the super creative members here to contribute a proper STP logo? (Hint hint to anyone reading this with drawing skills!)
I'm going to do up a trial monkey and maybe a couple patches today... Will post pics when I'm done.

Awesome! You've seen Sam? Think, mine will look like him, but smaller.
I might also make just Ugly Sam Dolls (my new creative project for things that aren't sock monkeys, but are still primitive and ugly) depending on what I have, sock wise...which I don't think will be a problem. Ha ha!
All of them for StP family will have the logo on the butt.
Not sure if it will be a patch, or embroidered on.

My first attempt at an STP sock monkey. (Be kind! It's also my first ever sock monkey!) Needs a little work, but I think the bones are pretty good.

First StP Ugly Sam Doll complete!
I got carried away and made this one bigger than I plan to make all others, (he's as big as sock monkey Sam) so not sure who this one would be best suited to.
It'll take up room...not a lot...
The next one I make will be much smaller.
Has the StP logo on the butt.
Anyone want him?

Ugly Sam is awesome! He's so punk!
Sock monkey already spoken for- ATX is at my place now. He'll be taking the monkey when he moves on. If anybody else wants one, speak up!

Ok about the socks, does material or anything like that matter? How about holes, think you can just patch them up? I've never made sock puppets, I'd have no idea where to even start.
OH! This might be a little more advanced an idea, but how about if those who wanted one sent their (cleaned) old socks with holes to you. You patch the holes any way that seems appropriate, and make some of the patched bits a feature of the monkey. Does that make sense? The end result would be a bit "crusty punk" itself.
