This is my first instructable, so bare with me if it's a little rough. :]

If you have feet, chances are you wear socks, and if you wear socks, you probably wear them out, particularly in the heals and toes. This instructable will show you how to turn a pair of unwearable old socks into a cute, cuddly, weird socktopus! (that's an octopus made out of socks). ^_^

Materials:
2 Socks (preferably a matching pair) Knee socks work best
A pair of scissors
Needle and thread/ sewing machine (you will need to hand sew a bit)
Stuffing (I used the insides of an old pillow)
Pins (optional)
Pencil/ chopstick (for turning the tentacles out after sewing)
Buttons or plastic eyes
