Sock Cat Bed

How I stopped my sock thief

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/sock-cat-bed • Posted by Jessi D.

Miles liked to steal my socks when he was a kitten. He'd drag them all over the house so, I decided to make his cat bed out of my old socks. The sewing machine and I don't get a long so I hand sewed everything. I started with 5 off my holey socks and used yarn to sew up any holes. Then I filled them with stuffing and stuck the toe of one into the top of another and sewed them together with yarn. I then layed out my ring of socks on to two layers of fabric. The top layer was very soft and the bottom was fleece. I then cut the fabric to the size I needed and sewed it to the bottom of the socks. Miles loves his bed and leaves most of my socks alone now. My sister even asked me to make one for her new cat.
