Notes

Used all of the sock making techniques I’ve learned over the years to knit these guys. The entire monkey is knitted using magic loop method. The only seam was for the hole in the crotch left for stuffing. Used toe-up technique for the legs, short row heel for the butt and snout. I started from the bottom up doing both legs first (without casting off) and working my way up. I started the other one from the head down. The arm and tail placement was determined as I was knitting the body. Knitted in waste yarn where I wanted them. Then released and picked up the stitches to knit them in.
