A cheerful monkey face with a big embroidered smile, round ears and shiny eyes, finished with a hanging loop. Use it as a potholder, a coaster, a mug rug, a table or wall decoration, or an applique – or join two and stuff them for a small cushion. Crochet a whole troop in brown, ginger and beige for a fun kitchen or a child’s room.
An easy pattern by Svetlana Zabelina with step-by-step instructions and photos. The face is crocheted in rows with simple colour changes and edged with crab stitch. An appendix shows how to crochet each stitch.
