This pattern will show you how to make a Monkey Lovey. Feel free to get creative and customize the lovey by changing the colors, head positioning, or facial features to get the look you want.

I made mine using Lion Brand Cotton 24/7 in Magenta and Charcoal. I crocheted the granny square base using an H (5.0 mm) hook and I used an F (3.75 mm) crochet hook for the monkey’s head and arms.

Gauge isn’t crucial as long as your stitches are tight enough to keep the stuffing in for the head and arms. I tend to crochet tightly, so you’ll probably want to go down a hook size if you’re a looser crocheter. As written, the granny square should be about 13 inches by 13 inches when finished.

You’ll also need fiberfill stuffing, stitch markers, and a tapestry needle.
