The same pattern as my crocheted Sock Monkey pattern, this one includes a Santa hat and beard, in place of the fez hat.

I made the original sock monkey from Lion Brand Wool-Ease yarns, but that is not really available anymore, you could substitute any worsted weight yarn, including Vanna’s Choice. The hat and beard were made using Red Heart Super Saver acrylic yarns. The finished monkey sits about 5 inches tall.
