Sock Week!
The sock monkey is an other growth of Depression Era recycling as American crafters turned the popular Rockford Red Heel Socks into stuffed monkeys once they wore out. The "red heel" is what gives the sock monkey its signature mouth.
More reading on the history of Sock Monkey can be found at Wikipedia or by visiting Rockford Illinois for the annual Sock Monkey festival.
