Sock Dog Upcycled Toy
"Don't we all find odd socks now and again with no idea where their partners went? The perfect solution is to turn that single sock into something new. This tutorial shows you how to make a cute sock dog from a single sock, a little stuffing, and a couple of buttons. So easy to make - and if you do happen to have a pair of socks you're happy to sacrifice, you can make a happy little pair of dogs - perfect if you have 2 kids!!"

This is a great way to make use of orphaned socks. Dogs love to have a toy to shake and pull on. I would leave off the button eyes however. I might leave off the four paws of the sock toy since they will no doubt be torn to shreds in no time.

What a practical and cute idea to use socks without a mate! And using the solid areas for the face and ears is perfect to help create the overall look. You could further embellish the face with some yarn whiskers, or add some yarn to define the paws a bit more, but either way,Mir is such a cute project!
