These new Holiday inspired Mars Hoodies are rocking! They come in red, green, yellow and a brand new color, royal purple. Some of the hoodies incorporate the “Power Paisley” and “Piggy” print fabric on the sleeves and each comes with a hand-sewn felt applique. There’s a pom-pom, red nose reindeer and the signature stars and hearts everyone loves. I hope you enjoy them! :)
Mars Hoodies are made from soft, knit fabric using a pattern I created to fit Mars Sock Monkeys. They’re sewn right in my apartment now based in NYC.

I was really excited to finish Isis because she’s the first monkey to wear my newly designed outfit for girl sock monkeys! This babydoll dress with bows comes with puffy sleeves and a gathered striped skirt with ribbon in the style of Punk Lolita. I think this look suits Isis well with her cyan and black zigzag stripes and her super long arms, legs and tail. Clearly she’s unlike any other sock monkeys I’ve made! I’m sure they’ll be more variations of this new outfit very soon. :)

Edwin Mars Sock Monkey is the first of it’s kind! He’s made from kid’s socks making him a couple of inches shorter than his fellow sock monkeys. I’m glad my client suggested using these socks. Before you know it, I’ll have a batch of little sock monkeys running loose in the house. ;)

A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of working with my very first sock monkey custom order client. She was a delight and even ordered a second monkey! She also gave each of them their names, Punk and Star. They now live in the southern land of Australia! See Punk and Star Mars in action at their new home.

Now I know why it’s so exciting to be working in secret. I can’t wait to get this batch of sock monkeys out the door! I had a great response from my last sock monkey, Eriko, and I hope that these little guys will be enjoyed just as much.
These new Mars Sock Monkeys, which I named Lulu, Frankie, Stella, Ben and Sheena, were half-raised in Seattle and London because I bought the socks in Seattle before I moved and put them together here in London. They are international jet setter sock monkeys!
I should be finished with all five this week (four of which will go for sale) and hopefully do a photo shoot by the end of the week if weather permits. I’ve been thinking of a theme and will need a few props. I also have a few other unveilings. One being the new sweater design below, which I modeled after a polo shirt. This is Lulu’s puffy short sleeve hoodie. The rest you’ll have to wait and see!!

Here are some London raised next generation monkeys to be…
