IF you are of a certain age YOU no doubt had a sock monkey growing up. I STILL have mine (AGAIN, I AM NOT a HOARDER!) Handmade by my Aunt Mary Jo. Side note… at 65 years old I still have several of my favorite toys. (kinda makes that whole “I’m not a hoarder claim fly out the window huh?) OR were you surprised?? Regular visitors, I am 100% certain that this did not surprise you at ALL!! Just a little FYI here; the Sock Monkey originated in the Victorian era. Those Nelson Socks have come a long way! Now socks are a true fashion statement as well as a way to keep our little tootsies warm. My History Of Socks Before I moved to Idaho I lived in Southern California where socks were just for fashion. I only chose socks for the look. Warmth wasn’t as important to me. Sure, a few days a year it was cold enough…
