If the baby has already grown from his favorite socks, it does not matter! Do not throw them away. Better make them funny pigs.
You will need:
- Old socks or knee-highs;
- Chenille wire approx. 20 cm;
- Flat buttons with a diameter of 2-3 cm;
- Filler for toys;
- Foam balls;
- Rotating decorative eyes for toys with a diameter of 12 mm;
- Felt Flaps
Step 1
Cut the sock along the heel across.
Step 2
Fill the front part of the sock with filler for toys, tie a hole with a thread, previously having inserted a piece of wire into it. Lubricate the end of the wire with glue.

Step 3
Wrap the remaining end of the wire on a pencil to make a spiral, similar to the tail of a pig. Cut off the excess part of the sock near the knot and around the wire close to the edge.
Step 4
Stick or sew on a button in the form of a five-point heel. Glue eyes and cut triangles from ears from felt. Round the corners, glue the ears symmetrically on one side of the triangles. Felt-tip pen to draw a mouth.
Socks cats: master class
Tip: make three piglets at once and you can play a fairy tale.
