About Monkey
What we like about Monkey is how little it tries to be everything — it does applique crochet, and that is the job we wanted filled on the Crochet Patterns shelf. There are no reviews on it yet, so judge it by the preview and not by a score that does not exist. With 19 saves it has barely been seen, and that is neither a good nor a bad sign on a catalogue this size. Homeartist is the name on the listing.
Whatever the project, the first thing we read is the finished size and the yarn weight; everything else can be adjusted, those two cannot. Put it to work on applique pattern first. If it survives that, it will survive whatever you had in mind next. Spend the minute on the preview at full size — it is where you find out whether applique crochet was the description or the aspiration.
If you came in looking for crochet applique, crochet pattern, diy and embellishment, you are in the right place — the listing carries all of those, which is the clearest sign the designer built it for that job rather than retitled it afterwards. On this site it lives on the Crochet Patterns shelf, so it also turns up for people browsing crochet patterns rather than searching for it by name. The searches that bring people to this shelf are crochet coasters, crochet toys, crochet basket, bookmark crochet and crochet bookmarks free patterns — this one sits in the middle of that group rather than off to the side of it.

How to use this pattern
- Download the PDF from Creative Fabrica and check the yardage and hook size before you shop — a small gift rarely needs a full skein.
- Work the gauge swatch anyway on anything that has to fit, like a hat or a bracelet; on a stuffed toy you can skip it.
- Stuff toys firmer than feels right and close the seam with a ladder stitch — a gift gets squeezed, and loose stuffing shows within a week.
- Make the first one a week before you need it. The second one is always the one you give away.
