You will need:

The scale of the sock decor may not be exact in the sock sample image, due to differences in screen resolutions. To get a better idea, pictures of the actual kit show how the pattern lays out on the parts once sewn. Parts will stretch gently and shape as you stuff them.
Limbs are serged/overlocked in the seams to help against seams splitting.
Totally hand crafted from brand new socks, machine and hand sewn elements. Felt is used on the eyes.
These must be crafted by a grown up, before giving to a child. Children who have sewing experience will be able to put this together with the help of an adult.
Do not leave stuffed animals in cribs with babies while they sleep.
Completed Monkey shown is an example and is not included in the kit.
