How to Make a DIY Sock Fox Plush:

Step 1

Flip a sock inside out, then fold the heel toward the opening, and draw the ears above the heel part as shown in the video. Backstitch along the outline, then cut off the excess fabric, and flip it right side out. Stuff it with filling pushing it, especially to the ears, then shape the head and body, and close the bottom off with a running stitch.

Step 2

Cut 2 white triangle felt and glue them onto the ears, then draw the front details onto a white sock, and cut it out. Place the white detail onto the body of the fox, then stitch it in place, cut out the eyes and nose from the felt, and hot glue them onto the fox’s face.

Step 3

Sew the end of a white sock onto the end of an orange sock, then flip it inside out, and draw on the tail. Sew along the outline and cut off the excess, then flip it right side out, stuff it, and stitch the opening closed.

Step 4

Stitch the tail to the body of the fox, then draw the legs onto the orange sock, and stitch along the lines. Cut off the excess, then flip them right side out, fill them with the stuffing, and close off the opening using a running stitch. Stitch the legs onto the fox and you’re done!
