Spock Monkey and ClosetGeek are famous.

Today Deborah Douglas, the creator of the cute Captain Kirk creation that you originally saw in the Halloween slideshow, sent us a link to this video of a local news story about her friend, Elisa Willis, AKA ClosetGeek, her Spock Monkey, and our Mr. Foster Halloween Costume Contest!

Captain James Tiberius Kirk Monkey

Can you believe that Spock Monkey was on the news? And that he and Captain Kirk really got to meet Leonard Nimoy and William Shatner? That's too cool!

Spock Monkey

There isn't currently a Spock Monkey pattern available, but you can still get the pattern for Mr. Foster and his pajamas, robe, scrubs & lab coat, officer cap, shirt & pants, and sailor pants, shirt & cap here.

Comment by Gwynedd on November 3, 2009 at 4:13pm: Just don't put the Sock Monkey in a red Trek shirt. Those guys always got offed in the Original Series (check it out..we used to call them "donuts" and yell at the screen "Hey Spock! it's a real mess down here. Beam down a coupla dozen donuts in red shirts for security!"
