Forum rules
Any show offs - not hair related - go here!

1) You must keep posts PG13.
2) If your pics are likely to be considered a little 'saucy' (sexy / suggestive shots are fine- so long as they are arty!) put NOT WORK SAFE/ NWS in your title.
3) When replying to a post, remember this is NOT the critique section.
4) Comments like " I love your eyes/ my god you are hot" are not helpful! Include them but please comment on the item/s being shown off too!
5) This Show Off section is only for showing off non hair related products, not making sales. Please make no references to eBay, A and P, or any kind of sales. You may offer the same item for sale in A and P, but no cross linking between A and P and Show Off. Show Off should be a place to comment and encourage each other; we don't want Show Off to become a billboard for sellers.

Peace sign scarf

Just google search "sock monkey pattern". They are usually knit, but if you're more comfy with crochet, I'm sure you can find one for that, too. Here's one I found:

Heyy, i realise some1 has posted a knitted pattern, but I made mine literally out of 2 matching socks and some thread - super easy for us non knitters. The most similar method I could find after a quick google is this one: http://www.perfectvalentines.co.uk/Make ... nkey.shtml - hope it helps! :)

Everything I look at, it seems, my mind turns into a knitting or crocheting project! :P
