Editorial Reviews

Library Journal
Did your washing machine eat one of your favorite striped kneesocks, leaving you with a lonely orphan? Maloney has a plan for that sad sock. Perhaps there's a penguin, hamster, or octopus inside that yearns to be free, and with a few snips and some simple sewing, you can make it so. Her collection takes the classic idea of the sock monkey and makes it into something new using basic techniques and imagination. Maloney's style is very informal-it's like reading the inner monolog of a craft blogger-and this will either charm you or distract you, depending on your tolerance for quirk and personal stories. Most of the projects are easy enough for (supervised) children, but adults who like a little whimsy won't be disappointed, either.
Publishers Weekly
Socks Appeal author, Brenna Maloney, is a former Washington Post editor. Assigned to cover the recession and housing crises that was brewing in 2008, Maloney started making sock animals for her children as a stress reducer. Maloney found that the more traumatic her job got, the more creating a new sock animal each night seemed to help. Maloney's wit and candor in how she writes the instructions is hilarious.

    Cute & Creative Projects!

    After originally buying this book for myself, I bought a copy for a friend for Christmas and she couldn't wait to get started making her own sock animals.

    Sit Down & Have Some Fun!

    My washing machine eats socks! I know yours does too! Not to worry
    anymore. I know what to do with the leftover ones. Hamsters, lions,
    mice and penguins! Yes, I'm talking sock creatures - very, very cute
    sock creatures. Brenna Maloney's Socks Appeal: 16 Fun & Funky Friends Sewn from Socks gives us all we need to know.

    Brenna did an exceptional job on this book because it is fun to read,
    easy, concise, with wonderful results and you already have the fabric!
    Even my grandchildren are making them for gifts for their friends! If
    you're new to sewing, just following the simple directions and the
    colorful photos. If you've been sewing for ages like me, sit down and
    have some fun!
