Inspired by Thoroughly Modern Millie, these sockmonkey caps feature Jimmy’s glasses and Millie’s hot lips. Ear flaps are knit first, then worked into cast on round. Ears are picked up and knit once hat is complete, and embellishments are knit separately and stitched on. Sized for monkeys of any age! Shown in Newborn.
