Pull out the end of the thread from the side of the tightening. From the other side, insert the hook, catch the end of the thread and pull out a loop about 30 cm long.
≈ 30 cm
≈ 60 cm
Crochet the leg – 12 chains in double crochet, the long end is our main yarn (the beginning of the thread on the diagram), the loop (the end of the thread on the diagram) is auxiliary.
Do not undo the loop, so the thread remains in two folds.
Do not secure the end of the thread, just pull out the tip.
If desired, you can crochet a tail with the same chain, our monkey doesn’t have a tail.
Attach the arms-legs with the remaining ends of the thread to the body. The legs are at the bottom around the tightening, the arms are on the sides ≈ 1 row from the neck. Tie the ends of the threads with a knot and hide them in the body.
Sew the eyes right above the muzzle, slightly inward. Sew with 2 stitches of embroidery thread doubled, that’s enough. Pull the thread tight (but gently) with each stitch to make the bead fit tighter. Sew the nose in the middle ≈ 2 rows from the edge of the muzzle.
≈ 2 rows
Using black floss in 6 strands, embroider the mouth with backstitches. Make the seam between the rows, stepping back 2 rows from the nose.
Using black floss in 6 strands, embroider the navel with regular cross stitches.
Attach a cord to the crown.
