Update

With the uncertainty of what government regulations will be put into effect in the coming year, we have, unfortunately, decided to close up shop.

We will be selling off our inventory on etsy:

We also still have lots of socks, so a blog will be set up at a later date to post those patterns for custom orders through etsy. When it is completed, it will be posted here, before closing this blog.

Thank you all for your support in our little adventure!

Get 'em while they're hot! (and available)

Chistmas is almost here, so don't forget to order your MyAmalies for you favorite little guy or gal!!! There isn't much time left!

And speaking of time left! Due to some recent government regulations regarding product testing, MyAmalies may have to close down. These new laws will go into effect in a couple months, we are hoping that some amendements will be made to save us, and other small businesses!!!

Check out the Handmade Toy Alliance website for ways to help save handmade toys! It is as easy as signing a petition, or writing a letter to your congressman.

Thank you!!

Come for a visit!

This weekend is your opportunity to see us, and all the sock animals in person!


We will be participating West Side Christian School Christmas Marketplace. We will be bringing all of our current animals, and some socks for custom orders. And, of course, we will have a special craft show discount!

Black Friday

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Black Friday is fast approaching! And for that infamous day, we have some special deals coming your way!

But first, we have some introductions to make!

This is Leona and Lionel! Our NEW animal, a lion! ROAR!

The lion will be available soon as a custom option on our website, if you want these guys you will have to go down to Hopscotch Children's Store. Also at Hopscotch, are some old favorites...

Elephants!



Elephants are acutally the sock animals that turned me on to sock animals! I saw a sock elephant in a magazine, and I had to make one!!!

On to the Black Friday deal!

On Black Friday only we will be having some great discounts!

ALL stock sock animals will be marked down 20%

AND if you don't see exactly what you want in the sock animals, just head on over to the create section, and order yourself a custom My Amalies animal for 10% off!!!!!

And don't forget, the Socks, Socks, and More Socks Contest ends at the end of the month, so get your guesses in! The winner will be announced here on December 1st!

*Please remember, animals have to be taken down manually once they are sold, we will do our best to take them down as soon as they are sold, and to notify you promptly if you have purchased an animal that is no longer available. Thank you.

Just to clarify.

The contest is for how many PAIRS of socks.... some people wrote "pairs", and some wrote "socks" I am going to assume that ALL guesses are pairs.

So, if you guessed as single socks, I am going to give you the opportunity to reguess in pairs, and I will disregard the first guess. So, post here if you need to change your guess to pairs (or if you can edit your previous guess)

Thanks to everyone for participating! 10 more days!!!!!!!

Socks, socks, and more socks!

Last weekend I decided it was time to go through and organize ALL the socks I have... aka future animals! And since it is just about time for another contest, how about guessing how many pairs of socks I have?

Here is a picture of them all in the suitcase that I keep them... don't try to count them either! Because you won't be right ;)
Whoever has the closest guess will win... a sock animal!!!!!! You never would have thought, huh?! So guess away!

Don't guess the same number as someone else, because whoever picked it first will win if they are correct/closest!

There will be ONE winner....
The winner will get to choose a baby MyAmalie, or if you guess within 5 either way of the number you get a large MyAmalie!

This contest will go until the end of the month. Good luck everyone!
