A cat made out of a single sock.
The Inadvertant Farmer's little craft project when a stray sock appears. We all must have one sock that we can't find the other pair to, so why not turn it into this adorable cat?

This pattern can also be found in a book I bought recently called: Stray sock sewing: Making one of a kind creatures from socks.
