About @SewCuteSockMonkeys
♡ Sew Cute Sock Monkeys' mission is to share the joy of sock monkey-making with everyone, while celebrating the uniqueness of individuals.
Sew Cute Sock Monkeys are handcrafted in the small city of Whitehorse in the Yukon by Alannah Bananah. Okay, my name is actually Alannah Monica, but I like the idea of bananas when talking about monkeys. I was born in the year of the monkey and my name rhymes with 'banana', what can I say? ♡
I am the owner-operator of @SewCuteSockMonkeys and started making monkeys when I was just 16 or 17, but the name Sew Cute Sock Monkeys was officially created in 2011 and only licensed this year, 2020! I specialize in custom orders and DIY kits. I am a huge supporter of anti-bullying and am highly against racism, and strive to remind others of how unique we all are. Each monkey, just like us, deserves equal respect.
I invite you and your friends to create your own sock monkeys and enjoy the experience creating sock animals.
I started by crafting business selling greeting cards when I was about 13 and when I started making sock monkeys, I was hooked. I have had various friends and family help me over the years, and one friend even has her own sock monkey business now! Sew Exciting!
I continue to operate this business by myself with the help of my older sister Victoria (@Moofius) and youngest sister, Lauren.
