Sock Monkey cup cosy

My sister, the quilter, sent me the link for a pattern to make adorable sock monkey sock cozies with a broad hint that she really really liked them.  Her birthday and her hubby's birthday are both at the end of January so I made two up for them.  Nancy's has more hair than Dougie Dear's does . . . LOL . . . But they live in a different town.  I was in her town last weekend but she forgot all about me and didn't answer her phone when I called (she says it was shut off).  So the sock monkeys are sitting on a shelf here until the next time she comes home for a visit.  Just to tease her I'm sharing a photo of the little darlings here . . .

Week #2 Challenge: Paper . . . and I mean ALL of your paper.
