Think about it, maybe you should knit such a monkey and give it to your friend or mother, or maybe your beloved grandmother. Master class with step by step photos and a detailed description will help you in making an original knitted monkey.

DIY crochet monkey

In order to knit a curtain holder monkey we will need:

• coffee-colored yarn;
• white yarn;
• screw eyes;
• holofiber.

Let's start knitting from the head. To do this, we knit 6 double stitches into the amigurumi ring and then, guided by the suggested pattern below, we continue knitting the head.

At this stage of knitting we attach the eyes, 9 rows away from the top and also 9 stitches between the eyes. We thread the eyes and with reverse side snap onto the rivets.

After the knitting is completed, we stuff the head with holofiber.

Torso

We continue knitting according to the description.

After finishing knitting, fill the body with holofiber.

Muzzle

We knit 6 tbsp into the amigurumi ring.

Fold the muzzle in half lengthwise.

Ears (2 parts)

We knit 6 tbsp into the amigurumi ring.

Inner part of the ears (2 parts)

We knit 6 tbsp into an amigurumi ring with white yarn.

1st: increase x 6 times (12p)

2p.: (increase, st.b/n) x 6 times (18p)

3p.: (increase, 2 st.b/n) x 6 times (24p)

Finish knitting, fasten the thread and cut it off.

Lower paws

Using white yarn we knit a chain of 5 chain loops.

Change the white color of the yarn to coffee and continue knitting.

9-17 row: 18p

18th row: (decrease, st.b/n) x 6 times (12p)

19th row: decrease x 6 times (6p)

Upper paws.

In the amigurumi ring we cast on 6 tbsp with white yarn, in the second row we increase x 6 times, we get 12 loops. We knit 6 rows with white yarn.

Then we change the color of the yarn to coffee and knit another 41 rows with single crochets. The upper legs will be long for ease of tying around curtains.

Sew the head to the body with hidden stitches.

We sew the face to the head.

We sew the inner part of the ears on top of the ears themselves.

We sew the finished ears on the sides of the head.

Sew the upper and lower legs to the body. We embroider the mouth with black thread and create a forelock with coffee thread.

So the monkey is ready.

Now you can hang it on a curtain, Christmas tree or palm tree.

Well, our dear needlewomen, are we starting to prepare for the New Year?)) Time will fly by unnoticed as usual, but there is still so much to do! Preparing New Year's souvenirs with the symbols of the coming year is already a real tradition! For those who are not yet in the know, the symbol of 2016 is the Fire Monkey, so this huge article from “Cross” will be devoted to creating monkeys with your own hands using a wide variety of needlework techniques!

This time I decided to deviate a little from the usual presentation of the material, namely detailed description the process of making each monkey. I have prepared for you a kind Guide to master classes, posted online. Believe me, there are very, very many of them!!! But there are already many times fewer good, interesting and high-quality ones. Having gone through literally everything, I personally chose, in my opinion, the most worthy, the best of the best!!! I present them to your attention)

In addition, here you will find links to purchase master classes, as well as ready-made monkeys self made! This information is also very relevant on the eve of the New Year!

So, let's start with simple ones and gradually move on to more complex and interesting master classes by monkeys.

Monkeys made of paper and on paper

Drawing postcards with children

Children should definitely be involved in preparing New Year’s souvenirs - let them at least make them with their own hands simple crafts with monkeys, for example, postcards. They will probably like the process, because during the work they will literally have to fumble around in the paint with their hands and feet)

To make a card with a monkey hanging on a vine, all you need is a sheet of paper and watercolors. Help your child paint 4 fingers and a palm with brown paint, and then let him leave his handprint on the paper! The monkey's head and tail can also be painted with paints.

Or you can cut them out of colored paper:

These simple elements can be used to create a cute monkey face)

Option three

If you don’t have time to sew a monkey with arms and legs, then sew only the head, it will be perfect as a keychain.

Option four

Such a monkey can be cut out of thick felt by gluing all the parts together. It will be faster, and it will look just as decent.

Option five

But you can sew such a monkey toy with your own hands if you purchase the pattern from its author (tilda4kids).

Coffee monkeys

Do you already understand where I'm going with this? Of course, this means that you can make coffee monkeys in the same way, which will fill the house with a wonderful aroma, and everyone who gets it will be in a great mood!

These are the naughty coffee monkeys you can buy

Monkey pillows

Another good idea is to sew a pillow in the shape of a monkey. There are many options here, as they say, choose to your taste. Here are some ideas for inspiration!

Buy a master class on knitted potholders“Baby monkeys” is suggested by Svetlana Zabelina.

Hot stand

The hot stand is also in the shape of a monkey's face) Description of knitting.

Mitten

An oven mitt can be used simply as a kitchen decoration or for its intended purpose. It fits like this.

Amigurumi toys are always in great demand. Therefore, choose a master class, knit, and then give your handmade monkeys to your beloved friends and family.

You can see what this monkey looks like “live” in the video from Marusya Prokopenko:

Option six

Button&Company shares a master class on knitting such funny monkeys)

Those who are interested in astronomy, and simply lovers of knitted toys, are offered a symbol of the coming year - a crocheted monkey. This craft is made using the technique amigurumi , essentially a small crocheted toy. The monkey is created according to the scheme, and even beginners will not have any difficulty in making this one for themselves using the presented master class charmer.

Breast

With a light thread, 2 air stitches and 6 columns without yarn overs . Next, to increase the circle, increments are made from the 2nd row, where 6 loops are added. In the 3rd row there are 4, in the 4th there are already 6 increases, also in the 5th and 6th tiers.

The breast module is sewn to the body with light threads.

Head

The coffee thread forms the center, similar to the first two modules, of 2 air .p. and 6 columns without yarn overs . Increases in the 2nd row of 6 loops, in the 3rd row of 4 stitches, then the 4th row. adds 6, in the 5th there are already 8 increases. The subsequent 6th, 7th and 8th, 6 increases each. In the 9th row there are only 2 additions, and in the 10th row there are 8.

And in the 24th tier, 15 loops are immediately decreased, in the 25th - 10, after which the volume of the head is filled with filler. The decrease continues in the 26th row - 9 stitches, and in the 27th - final row - 6 decreases . The thread is secured and cut.

Muzzle

The muzzle module is made of 2 identical parts with a light thread, which are superimposed on each other with an offset. Set also of 2 air loops and 6 sc . Add 6 loops in the 2nd row, 4 in the 3rd row. in the 4th, 5th and 6th tiers - 6 additions each. In the 7th row there is an increase of 4 loops. 8th row final knitted without changes.

Eyes are attached to one of the parts, then the muzzle is sewn to the head, for greater expressiveness facial expressions are embroidered: eyebrows, mouth, nostrils.

Ears

Two parts of the ears are made in a dark shade. The set also consists of 2 air . loops and 6 columns without yarn overs . Further, according to the increase scheme - in the 2nd row - 6, in the 3rd - 4, in the 4th - 2 additions. There are 6 increments in the final 5th. The thread does not break, it is for sewing to the head.

Light details, also in the amount of 2 pieces, are initially collected from 2 air stitches and 6 sc . Then in the 2nd row 6 are added, and in the 3rd - 4 loops.

Now the head and body of the toy are connected in the MK.

Legs

Continuing the master class, the soles of the legs are made of light thread, a set of 2 air . loops and 6 columns without yarn over . In the 2nd and 3rd rows 6 loops are added, in the 4th row 4 are added. In the 5th row, knitted without changes, you get 22 loops. Next, the top of the foot and the entire leg are knitted with a dark thread.

In the 6th tier, 1 chain stitch is performed and 2 loops are added in a circle. 7th circle knitted no increases. In the 8th row, 6 loops are decreased, in the 9th there are only 2. The foot is filled with padding, then we knit the length of the leg - 10-22 rows without changing the number of loops.

The description of the second leg is not given in the master class, since it is made similarly to the first, and then both of them are attached to the body.

Hands

Handle modules are made with the main color of yarn, 2 are also typed air p. and 6 sc . Next is the 2nd row with increases of 6 loops, 3rd row. – 2 increments, 4th – 4th. The height of the arm is gained from the 5th to the 20th rows, which knitted without changes.

The handles are filled with stuffing, the holes are sewn up and attached to the body.

Tail

The tail module is not stuffed, and in the given MK it is the easiest to manufacture.

2 air stitches are typed, and 6 columns without yarn over knit into the second loop from the hook. Subsequent tiers 2-25 are performed without increments and decreases . The thread remains for sewing to the monkey's body.

Greetings, dear friends and guests of the blog “We Create - Don’t Be Lazy.” Today on the agenda is another knitted monkey. I named her Monya, although the toy is more like Alpha, remember that series about an alien? Unlike , we will knit this monkey both with knitting needles and crochet. In addition, using this toy as an example, we will consider one of the types of thread fastening of parts.

This is, so to speak, a soft mount (remember, it was hard)

This thread fastening is stronger than. Our monkey can be tortured as much as you like, and nothing will fall off of her, and this is, perhaps, her main advantage.

Toys of this kind are called chatterboxes... Because their arms and legs dangle freely...

The introductory part is over - let's get down to business!

Knitted monkey - materials:

• Yarn “Grass” - 50g. (dark- beige color)
• Yarn “Blues” - 50g. (beige color to match the grass, but lighter or darker as you like)
• Hook No. 2
• Knitting needles No. 2
• Sintepon
• Bobbin thread to match the color of the yarn (optional)
• Eyes or beads or buttons (also optional... you can just embroider)

How to crochet and knit a monkey from fluffy yarn

First we knit all the parts from a smooth thread. Let's start with the most difficult... Not so much difficult as dreary)))...

Knitted monkey - fingers and palms

For fingers - crochet with blues yarn sliding loop 8 RLS. Next, in a spiral, we knit 10 rows with single crochets. You need to knit 16 such parts (the monkey has 4 limbs - 4 fingers for each).
Next... we stuff each finger, but without fanaticism, so that you can easily connect the edges. Flatten it)))
We connect the edge of the first finger with a sc (we knit 4 stitches all the way through - see photo), without stopping we attach the second “flattened” finger to it, also with 4 sc all the way through, and then the third.
Let's start knitting palms

We connected three fingers with one “braid” of 12 sc (4+4+4 when we sewed the fingers together). Now we will knit with single crochets in a circle using the loops of this chain, and we will make the stitches in one part of the chain, as if we were knitting a sole for a bootie. There is no need to make any additions. There will be 24 columns in total.

We knit 5 rows. At the beginning of the 6th row we place the fourth finger and knit it with a sc, piercing three surfaces with a hook at once (two from the finger and one from the palm). We knit 5 more rows in the round. We stuff the part (without fanaticism) and flatten it, connecting the edges of the RLS and knitting them through (see photo) You get a palm with fingers. If you did everything correctly, then when shaking your fingers will dangle)))
Knit the second palm in exactly the same way, but in the third and fourth there is a slight difference - the fourth finger is knitted not at the beginning of the 6th row, but a little further away. That is, first knit 8 sc, and then knit the fourth finger - you will get palms in a mirror image.

Ears for a knitted monkey

A knitted monkey cannot be without ears)))
I tried to draw a diagram, but it didn’t work out, so I’m writing it down:
4 VP + 1 VP lifting. then we knit in a circle in a spiral with single crochets

1st row - 4 sc (in each loop of the chain along the column), + 1 sc in the last loop (turn), 4 sc

2nd row - 2 sbn (increase) in the lifting loop of the bottom row, 4 sbn, 2 sbn (increase), 4 sbn

3rd row - increase. increase, 4 sc, increase, increase, 4 sc

4th row - 4 increases in a row (2 sc in each loop), 4 sc, 4 increases in a row, 4 sc. should make 24 loops

5-8 rows without increases (24 loops)

Row 9 - 2 together (decrease), decrease, 8 sc, decrease, decrease, 8 loops = 20 loops

10 row - 20 sc

Knit two parts, fold the edges (no need to stuff), connect the edges with single crochets (like palms. In the middle, when joining, make two decreases (optional) 5th and 6th. 7th and 8th knit together.

Monkey face

We first knit the muzzle by analogy with the ears
8 VP + 1 VP lifting. then we knit in a circle in a spiral with single crochets

1st row - 8 sc (in each loop of the chain along the column), + 1 sc in the last loop (turn), 8 sc

2nd row - 2 sbn (increase) in the lifting loop of the bottom row, 8 sbn, 2 sbn (increase), 8 sbn

3rd row - increase. increase, 8 sc, increase, increase, 8 sc

4th row - 4 increases in a row (2 sc in each loop), 8 sc, 4 increases in a row, 8 sc.

5th row - *1 sbn. increase* -2 times. *increase, 1 sc* -2 times. 8 sbn, * 1 sbn. increase* -2 times. *increase, *-2 times. 8 sc, = 40 loops. On these forty loops we knit 4 rows without increases or decreases...

11 - at the end of the row, knit two loops together

12 - at the end of the row, knit two loops together

Row 13-14 we tie the entire piece in a circle. Moreover, in the 13th row, at the junction of the muzzle and nose, there is an increase on both sides of the part.

We knit the furry part of the toy...

Main pattern:
garter stitch (knit rows - knit stitches, purl rows - knit stitches)

Front paws (two identical parts)
Cast on 30 stitches using grass thread. Knit with facial loops, decreasing in every 4th row 5 times, 1 loop at the beginning and end of the row. Next, knit 25 rows on 20 loops with a straight fabric. Then close all the loops
Hind legs (two identical parts)
Cast on 30 stitches using grass thread. Knit with facial loops, decreasing in every 4th row 5 times, 1 loop at the beginning and end of the row. Next, knit 6 rows on 20 loops with a straight fabric. Then close all the loops.

Torso
Cast on 20 stitches using grass thread.
1-2 r. - person.p.
3-13 r. - in each odd row we add 4 loops evenly (4-14 without increases) = 44 sts.
15-24 r. - no increases
25 - 31 r. - in each odd row we add 3 loops evenly (26-32 without increases) = 56 sts.
33-40 rub. - straight fabric without additives
41-48 r. - in each row we evenly decrease 7 loops
We fold the part, sew it together and stuff it with padding polyester (without fanaticism)

Back of the head (occiput)

Cast on 10 stitches using grass thread.
1 rub. - person.p. =10
2 r. - kr., increase, * persons, increase *, persons. =19
3rd row and then all odd rows - no increases
Row 4 - cr., *increase, k2*, knit = 28
Row 6 - cr., *increase, k3*, knit = 37
Row 8 - cr., *increase, k4*, k = 46
Row 9 - exactly...
attach it to the knitted smooth muzzle and see if the part is long enough around the circumference of the face (it should be enough))) the grass is much thicker... if not, then add more loops in the 11th row
10 -20 row without increases

Assembling arms and legs

Handles and legs are assembled in the same way. We look at the photos and collect... (just don’t forget about the left and right)))
Because If hairy parts have identical left and right sides, then it will be easier for us...

We place our palms on the hair part and pierce both parts with a hook and immediately connect them with single crochets.

Then we turn the palm away from the half of the hairy part that is not covered and, piercing three surfaces with a hook, we immediately connect everything together with a sc, returning to the beginning of the connection. Then, in the same way as RLS, we connect the side parts of the arm or leg and turn the part inside out.

You can also do this with a needle and thread (whichever is more convenient for you).

We will not stuff our arms or legs... After all, we want to make a chatterbox toy)))

Therefore, we also sew the edge of the arm, but on the right side of the part, and sew the limbs to the body at this very edge.

We sew “tightly” on both sides of the seam, i.e. walk the needle around the entire edge of the arm (or leg) around the perimeter so that the parts hold tightly.

Shake the workpiece - the arms and legs should dangle)) remember, our knitted monkey is a chatterbox toy?)))

Head

We sew the occipital part of the furry part of the head (the loops that were picked up and the bevels with increases) and to the opposite side along the circumference we sew in the muzzle crocheted. There will be an unstitched hole left (two edges of the fabric opposite each other, where there were no increases), so we do the stuffing through it.
This detail can be stuffed “from the heart”))), but again without fanaticism))) and sewn to the body
All that remains is to sew on the ears in the same way as the arms and legs and “draw” the face. I think you can handle this yourself! turns out to be the cutest creature -

knitted monkey from different types yarn

P.S. In my opinion, such a monkey can be given to anyone))) Be it for a holiday, or just like that))) I have already privatized it)))

I give you this description :) Tying a monkey is not at all difficult! Let such a knitted monkey become a good toy friend for your children)))
