From the Blogger: "This cute baby crochet monkey is easy-to-crochet and can be made in just a few hours. He is crocheted in DK weight 3 yarn and using a 3.75 mm (F) hook. He is soft, huggable and perfectly-sized for small hands. If you want to give this a try using medium weight yarn, please use a hook size 4 mm (G) and larger black safety eyes. If you are giving this monkey to a baby or small child please consider using embroidered eyes instead of safety eyes."
