sock monsters! (http://www.amazon.com/Stupid-Sock-Creatures-Lovable-Cast-off/dp/1579906109/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/002-4335538-8007246?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1175617373&sr=8-1)

I've been seeing this book everywhere, and am dying to have one!

Do you think it would be hard to learn enough to be able to sew well enough to make one?
And would it be safe to give a baby? Maybe without the buttons?

Have you read the customer reviews? It's seems like it wouldn't be too hard, but you do have to be careful of securely fastening eyes and such on so baby won't get them. There are no patterns. It's kind of organic.

I would think that if you draw on the eyes instead of using buttons, they would probably safe for babies. They sure are cute!!
