I want to travel to Kärråkra in Västergötland, Sweden.
Sock dolls were popular around the 1900's. The Nelson Knitting Mills in Rockford, Illinois first made the original rockford red heeled sock in 1890. In 1920 the mill soon began packaging the directions for the sock monkeys with each pair of socks after a customer fashioned a doll and sent it to the company. The Nelson Knitting Mills was purchased by Fox River Mills in 1992 and now Fox River makes the Red Heel Monkey Sock. Mr John Nelson emigrated to the U.S. from Kärråkra in Västergötland, Sweden.
