Materials Needed:
Yarn in two colors, in my case it’s brown and light yellow, and a bit of pink for the bow (Kartopu Kristal).
Crochet hook size 2, yarn needle for sewing pieces together, scissors.
Stuffing, in my case – polyester fiberfill.
Beads for eyes.
Additionally used wire for legs, arms, and tail, but this is optional.
Abbreviations:
sc – single crochet
ch – chain
inc – increase (2 single crochets in one stitch)
dec – decrease (skip 1 stitch or crochet 2 stitches together)
I want to note right away that I crochet as follows: I close each row and start with a turning chain, thanks to which the item does not shift and looks even, especially when crocheting with different colors. At the same time, only a barely noticeable, so to speak, seam is formed. This toy is crocheted inside out.
So, let’s start crocheting our monkey 🐒

Cut the yarn, leaving a long tail for sewing.
Now, sew all the parts together. First, attach the head to the body, then stuff the muzzle and sew it to the head. Next, sew on the arms, sew the legs slightly to the sides, then embroider the fingers with brown thread. Sew the ears in a semi-circle, making a small tuft. Create a gather on the head by inserting a thread at the base of the muzzle, strictly in the middle, where the head is sewn to the body, and bring it up through the light yellow semi-circle, catching our light yellow semi-circle and thread through the entire muzzle, at the point where we inserted the thread, tightening the top of our semi-circle, after which we get 2 arches so to speak, tie a knot and hide the thread. Sew the eyes a little apart, gradually pulling them closer to each other, creating a small nose bridge. Embroider the nose with black and the mouth with red. To make a belly button, insert the thread at the tail location and bring it through the entire body to the belly button location, then go back, tightening. Then sew on our tail.
You can slightly shade the face and ears, I did it with regular shadows, around the eyes and inside the ears.
That’s it, our monkey is ready 🐒. The height is approximately 16 cm when using the same yarn as mine.
Happy crocheting, dear friends!!!
