Sock Donkey....Zebra. Zebra Donkey. FOR SALE

So, I have had NO money recently, and with Christmas, I was worried I wouldn't be able to get my family presents this year, and I love giving presents so I was kinda gutted. So, I decided to try to find a way I could make cheap presents! A few weeks back, I was with a group of women sewing sock monkeys for children whos mothers were in battered women refuges. I had never made a sock monkey before this, and totally fell in love with it. Its so fun, quick, easy, and they look AWESOME! So, I figured, £1 for a pair of socks, easy peasy presents.

My stepmother absolutely adores Donkeys, so I made her a donkey. Unfortunately the socks are stripey so it looks like a zebra, but meh, its a Zonkey. Or a Debra. I didn't have great internet access, and only had a day before Christmas to make it, so I made up the pattern as I went along. Im really pleased with it! He has a regular body, with a thread sculpted face to give him nostrils, chin and dimples. His mane and tail are glittery wool turned into pompom fringe things, then glued on. I figured glue would be the most secure and would stop threads slipping out.
