Sockkiddos, Lexington, KY

I have been a graphic designer for over 25 years designing print materials for businesses and individuals in Lexington, Kentucky USA through my freelance business AlliGraphics Design.

I recently retired from full time work and wanted to still stay active creatively. Many of my younger friends were having babies and I wanted an unique gift for their new offspring. I created a few soft stuffed animals from socks. Then I got requests from their older children and teenagers so "SockKiddos" was born!

It is important to me that my Kiddos look hand-made with hand stitched eyes and arms. I left off the mouth so children can use their imagination as to what the Kiddos are feeling or saying! I use one sock to create a Kiddo. The size of the Kiddo is determined by the size of the sock.

The Kiddos are small enough to be carried in a purse, pocket or lunchbox. All have a color coordinated elastic band on the back so you attach a gift card/credit card (as an extra gift) or attach a hook to hang it from a backpack/lunchbox.
