Sl st and leave yarn for sewing.
Now comes the most responsible moment, assembling the muzzle. Prior to this, we filled the head to the desired density, attached the corners of the headband, and inserted the eyes, but did not attach them from the back. Now fill the muzzle with stuffing and fit it to the head, the top part of the muzzle should cover the remaining hole of the head. Attach the muzzle with pins, making sure the eyes are symmetrical. Detach the muzzle, take out some stuffing from the head, attach the eyes securely. Fill the head again.
28 – (1SC, DEC) repeat 6 times (12).
29 – DEC. Pull the remaining loops together and hide the yarn.

At this stage, sew the upper part of the leg to the lower part. It’s easier to sew if you fill the upper part of the leg with stuffing. I wanted to make a long-legged monkey, but optionally, you can make the legs shorter. Fill the leg with stuffing as you crochet, approximately one-third full, not tightly packed.
9-21: 16 SC – 13 rows.
22: (6 SC, DEC) 2 times (14).
23: 14 SC.
24: (5 SC, DEC) 2 times (12).
25: 12 SC.
The leg should be filled with stuffing approximately one-third full. Fold the leg in half. Ensure everything is symmetrical. If necessary, you can crochet or unravel a few stitches. Then crochet the two sides of the leg together, Sl st, and cut the yarn.
Amigurumi Monkey Arms (2 parts):
The lower part of the arm – palm.

10-12: 16 SC.
13: (6 SC, DEC) 2 times (14).
14: 14 SC.
15: (5 SC, DEC) 2 times (12).
Continue filling the arm with stuffing. I wanted to make a long-armed monkey; however, optionally, you can crochet fewer rows to make shorter arms.
16-30: 12 SC – 15 rows.
31: (4 SC, DEC) 2 times (10).
32: 10 SC.
33: (3 SC, DEC) 2 times (8).
34: 8 SC.
The arms should be filled with stuffing approximately one-third full. Fold the arm in half. Ensure it is symmetrical to the palm and not twisted. If necessary, crochet or unravel a few stitches. Then crochet the two sides of the arm together, Sl st, and cut the yarn.

Sl st, leave yarn for sewing the head.
Fill the remaining part of the torso, firm up the neck area so that it doesn’t wobble after sewing the head. Attach the head to the torso, ensuring the seam doesn’t interfere with the muzzle and headband but passes just below them.
