2. Monkey Amigurumi Crochet Pattern by Spin A Yarn Studio
This cheeky monkey would be great as a wall-hanging in a nursery or a little one’s bedroom or even just to hang from a shelf. You can crochet anything you want to put into the monkey’s little hands (a banana?!) or keep it simple by leaving his hands empty (all the better to get into mischief!).
The branch is totally optional as well; it makes a fun addition to a wall-hanging but is not necessary for this little guy to monkey around. This Monkey pattern is a unique amigurumi made in the ragdoll-style; separate pieces worked in flat rows and joined together to give it that charming and distinctive 2-D appearance
