Anyone have an idea for making rolled up socks? I'm trying this with some sock clothing items and magnets, but I'm having little luck.

Looks like a situation for a primitive with the ends folded/morphed in to me

I'd have to flatten the ball primitive (to be more oval) and roll in the ends how?

Maybe drape a cloth over a sphere, then pull it up a little and save the general shape of the cloth, then delete the sphere and adjust the cloth?

The cloth keeps falling off the ball.

This would be easiest done in a modelling app that supports sculpting like Sculptris, Blender or Zbrush.

I'm not proficient in those.
I can make the basic shape using a primitive ball, shaping it in a more oval shape, and applying a sock texture. But getting the folds and tuck-ins at the end has baffled me. I also can't figure out how to save the texture applied, shaped primitive.
