Anyone remember those sock monkeys of yesteryear? Clarity Miller has given them an upgrade for the 21st century in the form of extra arms – eight of them to be exact! Available at Elsewares and Blackbird Fashion, Socktopi are made from used sweaters so no two are ever alike.

It’s a wonderful second lease on life for that old argyle sweater that’s lost a bit of it’s appeal, don’t you think? PS – these guys come with little buttons for eyes so it’s a good idea to keep ‘em away from your little ones if they’re under three.
