Monkeying Around


This is the second half of my grandma’s birthday present, with inspiration from her Chinese zodiac sign.

Once again, I am using Ysolda‘s adorable elephant pattern.  Elephant, you say?  Well, Whitney came up with some ingenius modifications that turn it into a monkey.

The only big change I made was to add a wire inside a bigger i-cord for his tail.  Now this little guy can hang around his favorite food all day long.   Yum yum yum!

  2. Julie! How fast do you knit???!!! I love the little animals. Do you have patterns, or are you just that awesome?

  3. Laura, I have so many favorited patterns on Ravelry… someday I’d like to be awesome enough to make up my own, but until then, there are more than enough in my queue. I knit really slow actually, but combine it with tv time. I want to see updates from Vermont!
