These little monkeys are simply adorable. With the help of this very detailed 20-page pattern, you can crochet these little monkeys yourself, and plenty of pictures will help you along the way. Depending on the yarn used, these monkeys will be about 30–40 cm tall, making them the perfect size for cuddling and playing. To crochet the monkeys, you’ll need: A size 2–3 crochet hook, depending on the yarn you use. Yarn: You can use any yarn, but cotton yarn is ideal—or fluffy yarn if you want to crochet a plush monkey.

The fluffy little monkey was crocheted using Lana Grossa Estivo (2x50g) for the body, and the natural color for the feet, hands, face, and belly (approx. 2x50g) from myboshi’s Favorite Colors No. 2. However, you can use any yarn from your stash that matches the color scheme; just keep in mind that this will affect the size of the finished figure. My monkey made with myboshi Favorite Colors No. 2 is about 30 cm tall; the monkey made with the fluffy yarn is slightly larger, about 40 cm. Black sewing thread for the facial embroidery (I used 6-ply sewing thread). If you use a different type of yarn, you may need to adjust the yarn quantities accordingly.

Stuffing, small black beads for the eyes, craft pliers To crochet the little monkeys, you’ll need to know how to do the following: Single crochet (sc), decreases, increases, slip stitch, magic ring.
