About this pattern

This monkey comes together from eight separate pieces, each with its own round count to check off: 5 rounds for each ear, 6 for the muzzle, a single round for the bow, 25 for the head, 14 for each leg, 11 for each arm, 25 for the body, and 6 for the dress. Working through the list piece by piece keeps a big project from feeling like one long unbroken round count.

Gauge isn't critical for this project, but keep your tension tight enough that the fiberfill doesn't show through the finished fabric.

Crochet the small pieces first — ears, muzzle and bow — to get quick wins before the bigger parts.
Work the head in joined rounds to start, then move into a continuous spiral partway through.
Build the body as a matching continuous spiral so its shaping lines up with the head.
Crochet the legs and arms as separate pieces, ready to be seamed on once the body is done.
Join the dress in worked rounds rather than a spiral, keeping its shaping distinct from the body beneath.
Wrap and cinch the bow last, then sew it in place using its own working tails.

What goes wrong

Cutting the bow tails too short Leave the full 20-25 cm tail at the start and don't cut the working tail after cinching — both are needed to wrap the center and sew the bow to the head.
Sewing arms and legs at the wrong rounds Count up to rounds 6-7 for the legs and rounds 27-28 for the arms before whipstitching them on, and check the inner arm faces forward before securing.

FAQs

Asked and answered

These answers came from whoever first published the pattern, kept word for word.

Do the ears and legs get made twice?

Yes, both the ears and legs are worked twice each, following the same round-by-round instructions given once in the pattern. The arms are also made in a matching pair.

Why are some head rounds joined instead of spiraled?

Rounds 1 through 8 of the head are worked as joined rounds, each starting with a chain 1, while the rest of the head continues in a continuous spiral. The dress follows the same joined-round method throughout.

How is the bow finished off?

After the single round of double treble petals and a chain 1, both yarn tails are wrapped around the bow's center and tied to cinch it. Those same tails are left uncut so they can sew the bow onto the head later.
