Hello my dears, would you like to make a wonderful monkey amigurumi? Moreover, the crochet monkey pattern that I will share today is quite easy and seems like a very good choice for beginners. I think the monkey color looks very cute. Choosing such vibrant colors makes doll amigurumi much more impressive. When crocheting amigurumi, you make the body and legs as a whole, and then you make the other parts separately. Then you complete this magnificent monkey amigurumi by combining all the pieces.
Easy Orange Monkey Amigurumi Toy
When making a monkey with a detailed amigurumi pattern, I honestly wouldn’t choose the color orange. If I were to make a monkey amigurumi toy, the color I would choose would be shades of brown.
Designer: Olga Zimina
When using the recommended materials, the size of the toy is 12-13 cm.
Materials:
1. YarnArt “Jeans” yarn (160/50): leftovers of any color and a little white.
2. Filler for toys.
3. Hook number 1.75.
4. A little bit of thin red thread for crocheting the tongue (I have “Iris”).
5. Black thread for embroidery of eyes or black semi-beads with a diameter of 6 mm.
6. Glue Moment, scissors, needle.
