To give a child an original designer gift that he will like, sometimes you have to spend an impressive amount of money. And not always, even if you are ready to empty your budget for the required amount of money, the stores have something that will suit you and your child. Of course, you can order a wonderful handmade gift online or buy it in an expensive boutique, but a little thing that will be made by your own hands will certainly delight the recipient and retain a piece of your soul. Moreover, you will always know what your gift consists of, and you can confidently say that it does not contain harmful, low-quality or hazardous materials.

In this article you will learn about one of the options for a homemade gift - a monkey crocheted using the amigurumi technique.

This toy can be given not only to a child. An adult will also be pleased to receive it as a souvenir; you can also perfectly fit this craft into the interior of your home or use it as a keychain.

Crocheting (monkey patterns are provided below) is very simple. Of course, if this is your first time picking up a hook, you will have to practice a little.

What is amigurumi?

The term "amigurumi" appeared relatively recently. The word came to us from Japan. It is believed that Asian craftswomen used this technique for a very long time as an alternative to the European knitting method. However, the style received its world-famous name only after the release of the cartoon Hello Kitty on world television screens, when Japanese fans of the cartoon posted photographs of the first miniature copies of the characters on the Internet.

Now amigurumi animals (in this case you will crochet a monkey, the knitting pattern is very simple) have filled the whole world. There are several rules that must be followed in order for your bonded pet to be called an "amigurumi".

Miniature

One of the most important differences between amigurumi is the small size of the toy; it should not exceed 12 cm. After all, it is this miniature size that makes them so cute.

Bright colors and maximum personification of even inanimate objects

In order to comply with the Japanese style, your author's creation must have a human face (mouth or nose, eyes). To further “humanize” the product, dress your pet. You can crochet, you don’t even need a pattern here. To create amigurumi, you need to choose bright colors; it is important to avoid smooth color transitions. All details of the muzzle are made in black or dark brown.

Disproportion and technique

Amigurumi toys always have a relatively large head. Knit all the elements in a circle so that there are no extra seams.

Now that you know briefly about the style in which you will crochet a monkey, the pattern described in this article will not come as a surprise to you.

So, let's proceed directly to creating our toy.

Materials and tools

Before you learn how to crochet a monkey (the diagram, as you understand, is not the only thing you need), you need to prepare the following supplies:

• Knitting threads of different colors. For example, blue and white, white and orange yarn will go well together, although what colors your monkey will be made in depends only on your desire, taste and imagination. Since we are crocheting a monkey (pattern, description and photographs are presented below in the text), acrylic thread is best suited for you. A toy with such a composition will hold its shape better and look more natural, especially since stores now offer a large selection of children's hypoallergenic acrylic.
• Black or dark brown thread for embroidering face details.
• Crochet hook. Its number should be a couple of sizes smaller than the yarn you choose.
• Cotton or padding polyester filler.
• A needle and thread to connect all the parts of your monkey.
• Scissors.
• Beads or ready-made eyes (if desired, eyes can also be knitted or embroidered)

diagram, description

As mentioned earlier, in this article we will look at the Japanese technique of knitting an amigurumi monkey.

Any product is crocheted using this technique in a spiral, so that, having mastered only the initial skills in crocheting, you can easily knit yourself a cute favorite, following our advice.

The main task when knitting such a toy is to make sure that the loops fit as closely as possible to each other, without gaps or gaps. Otherwise, filler will come out of the finished monkey, giving the finished product a sloppy appearance. This is why the hook size should be slightly smaller than the size of the thread used.

When creating our monkey, we will first knit all its body parts separately, and then connect them after we fill each of them.

A little introduction for beginners

Below you will find a brief description of the simplest types of loops that you need to master before crocheting a monkey. The diagrams for beginners are clear and show step-by-step execution of one or another type of loop.

Initial loop

Place the end of the thread on the thumb of your left hand, insert the hook from left to right, grabbing the thread, and insert it into the resulting loop. Grab the thread going through your index finger and insert it into the ring that has slipped off your thumb. Tighten.

Air loop

The end of the thread with a loop lies on the thumb of the left hand and the rest of the thread hangs down, bending around the index finger of the same hand. The “bridge” of thread between the fingers should be slightly taut. You insert the hook into the loop, grab the thread from the “bridge” and pull it into the loop until a second loop is formed. Insert the hook into the newly formed loop and repeat the operation until you get a chain of the desired length.

Single crochet

Thread it through the last loop, then thread it into the previous loop and grab the thread, pulling it back through both. You now have a loop on your hook. Without removing it, insert the hook into the next loop of the previous row and repeat the action, etc.

Connecting loop

To do it, insert the hook into the last loop of the row and, without removing it, thread the hook into the first loop of the row, catch the thread, and then thread it through both loops. That's it, you can knit the next row.

We have sorted out all the nuances that we will encounter as we work, and now we are crocheting a monkey step by step.

Head and body

• We knit 7 air loops.
• A row of single crochets, this will be the first row. Connect all subsequent rows with a connecting loop.
• Rows 2 and 3 are knitted, tying two single crochets onto each loop of the row in front of them.
• Row 4: knit, alternating loops of the previous row, on one you tie 1 single crochet, on the second 2, on the third 1, on the fourth 2, etc.
• Row 5: You work by working 2 single crochets onto each stitch of the row in front of it.

Since we are crocheting a small monkey, we will have to stuff parts of its body as we knit it, so already at this stage you can put a little filler in the crocheted part.

• Rows 6, 7, 8 are knitted with a regular single crochet, tying 1 stitch on each loop of the row in front of them.
• Knit rows 9-13, decreasing as much as you added in rows 2, 3, 4 and 5.

Add filler.

• Knit rows 14, 15 with a regular single crochet, tying 1 stitch on each loop of the previous row.
• Rows 16, 17 and 18 you put 1 single crochet in three loops of the previous row, and 2 single crochets in one.
• Next, we knit rows with a regular single crochet until the monkey’s body reaches the size you need.
• Adding filler, we knit the last three rows with decreases corresponding to increases in rows 16, 17, 18.

When we are crocheting a monkey step by step and have already knitted the main element - the head with the body, we should not relax, because there are still a lot of details ahead, not difficult to knit, but no less necessary for this.

Ears

• Knit 7 chain stitches, then 6 single crochets. Connect this entire structure into a ring.
• Row 2 is knitted by skipping two single crochets into each stitch of the row that comes earlier.
• Rows 3, 4, 5 are knitted with a regular single crochet, 1 in each previous loop.

You need to knit two pieces of such parts, or you can knit 2 more pieces for the ears of a different color and smaller size and sew them together.
Using the same pattern, tie your eyes.

Knitting pattern for muzzle

• Knit 4 air loops and close them to the ring.
• Rows 2 and 3 are knitted into the loop in the middle, 2 single crochets each.
• Rows 4 and 5 are knitted with 1 regular single crochet.

This is the only part you need.

Monkey feet

• Row 1: knit 7 chain stitches, make 6 single crochets and tie them into a ring.
• Rows 2, 3 and 4: work 2 single crochets into each stitch of the previous row.
• Fill with filler.
• Rows 5, 6 and 7: decrease as many stitches as you added in rows 2, 3 and 4.
• Fill with filler.
• Next, we knit rows in a regular single crochet stitch with a thread of a different color, until the leg is the length you need.

Don't forget to add filler from time to time. You will need a couple of these parts.

We continue to crochet the monkey.

Hand diagram

• Row 1: knit 7 chain stitches, make 6 single crochets and tie them into a ring.
• Row 2: Work 2 single crochets on each stitch in the row in front of it.
• Rows 3 and 4 are knitted using a regular single crochet stitch.
• Row 5: decrease stitches according to the increase in row 2.
• We knit subsequent rows with a thread of a different color until the hand reaches the desired size.

We make 2 such parts.

Knit the tail like arms, only longer.

Now you have finished crocheting a monkey, the assembly diagram is described below.

Putting the monkey parts together

• First of all, you need to sew the arms to the junction of the body and the head.
• Then we sew the legs parallel to each other to the bottom of the body along the edges.
• Now you can sew on the tail; it is placed at the back in the middle of the lower part of the body.
• Attach the muzzle to the bottom of the face and the eyes above the muzzle.
• Embroider a mouth on the muzzle.
• Attach ears to the sides of the head.

Well, now you have become the proud owner of a small handmade monkey. Now, if you have a desire, we crochet a basket monkey. You already have a monkey pattern, but how to knit a basket? Knit a small “bowl” in a circle in a contrasting color and attach the toys to the hands. You can put small jewelry there, such as earrings.
