Would you like to suggest a name for me please? This is my latest. I wondered about making a lion in Purples and My girlfriend said "Why Not", because the other toys are not the correct colours - so here is my Purple Lion.

He is just as cute as the others, love it! How about "Moradito" means purple in Spanish.

I have a few different versions of purples so Might keep them especially for lions. The Lions have more Character.

Sorry there isn't a pattern. It really is just the same as the sock monkey with a few adjustments in shaping. Really the paws should be sewn as well, but I haven't done that to this one.

If you wish. If you have a pair of this type of sock I might be able to guide you through the stages. Wish you could all come to my place.

Lionel was the name I was going to suggest but I see others have suggested that. He is beautiful, most regal

He's adorable, as are all of your "critters". As for a name, I don't know, but I do know that he must be from the purple PRIDE. Sorry, I couldn't resist the pun.
Hugs and *'s, Deb

When my DH was still here, we used to own a Fuchsia Nursery and there is a Fuchsia called "Purple Pride". Some names come easily, but I think this one is Lionel.

I think he is Lionel, but made another Orange one last night and I might call him Lenny. Just have to remember all of their names now.

Look at the top of the page in community, there is Public, freebies, personel and the last on the right is private. Click on this and there you can write a message to mi30kaja which only the two of you can see

Violet - Violetta could work. You might want to ask the very young shoppers what color they would want if they were going to buy one of your sock animals then you will know what color is in demand.

I know a lion is male but many little girls love the color purple.

capoodle by capoodle 12 Oct 2011

"Indigo" could work for either a male or female's name.

mi30kaja by mi30kaja 12 Oct 2011

I am keeping all of the names in my mind as I intend to make a few Lions of various colours.
