A Monkey for my Monkey

So cold weather is in full swing here in Chicago.  That means that it's time to pull out the winter coats and hats.  Perfect!  I finished this monkey hat for Annika Wednesday night.  She was so excited to wear it yesterday.  I used Caron Simply Soft yarn.  I really love this yarn, but I'm eager to use I Love This Yarn from Hobby Lobby to see which one I like better.  The Caron is super soft and has been my go to acrylic.  But I've heard so many good things about ILTY that it's made me curious.  Sorry for the blurry picture.  It's from my cell phone.





This pattern is from Danyel Pink of Crazy Socks Crochet.  If you have never bought a pattern from Danyel, you are really missing out.  She has some of the best-written patters out there.  You should definitely check her out.  You can have a Monkey Hat of your very own for $22.  Please message me with the size and colors you desire.

Another new item is this cute ear warmer.  I love the stitch pattern.  It can have a button closure or ties and can have a contrasting color on the edging.  These are available for $10.



Have a great weekend, everyone!
