Notes

Got tired of making samples and felt like a challenge.

Bought the pattern booklet at De Witte Engel a couple of weeks ago. I’ve been looking at this monkey for years, saw it on the Kreadoe at some point I think. Will be nice companions to my Amineko cats.

Update September 30: Finished! Loved making it, it definitely helps that you don’t have to sew parts together. The pattern is complex but very well written and I had next to no problems making this monkey by following the directions. I will definitely be making more of these.

The eyes are clear eyes from 6060 on Etsy, colored the back with a sharpy marker.

Amount of Charly yarn is estimated.
