A super-cute monkey face bib for baby to, well… spit on.

Also includes directions to modify the pattern to make a mini monkey pillow or stuffed toy, or a monkey potholder, just in case you like the idea of simian-themed crafting, but don’t have any little ones around.


This is a crochet pattern suitable for intermediate crocheters, and involves the following techniques:

  • Working in rounds and working in rows
  • The following crochet stitches: ch, sc, hdc, dc, tr, sl st
  • Magic Ring (instructions for this are included with the pattern)
  • Clean Fasten off (instructions for this are included with the pattern)

Finished bib size is about 11.5” x 8.25”, and takes about 95 yards of worsted weight yarn.
