Ladies - never let a man play with your monkey

He'll only abuse it.

Ok, so No. 11 looks slightly odd. He has a weird, spaced-out look in his eyes; he may have been inadvertently created with some body parts knitted the wrong way round; it could have been the appallingly cheap yarn used, or the rushing to get him finished. But I really don't think there's any need for this .......

Where did I leave my teesh??

Assume the snogging position. (Do you see what I have to put up with?)

Thriller



Welcome to the monkey house No. 11



I hope you'll be very happy




Course, the real reason he looks so weird?



Mushrooms. Nuff said.

Oh, poor monkey. It's a bit like the ballerina dolls I've been knitting for my two - they have elbows where there should be no joints from all the pulling and tugging inflicted. I don't know why I bother!

Shouldn't your blog-name be "Welcome to the Mad House"????? Seriously funny! Lucy

monkey abuse - it just should not be allowed.
no wonder they are searching for new homes - once the first monkey goes and sends back telepathic messages of how gooooood life can be, the others will follow........
mmmm..... 2.5 dime bar cakes - sounds enough to be getting on with.

p.s - also had to look up your fancy word!!!!!!

Hee hee - I think Number 11 is now my favourite monkey! He looks a bit nuts! But they are all beautiful. I am now sorely tempted to try knitting my own monkey, having originally been a bit put off by reading comments that the Sirdar pattern was hard to follow.

Do you use the Sirdar pattern or the Evesham Dallimores one for your monkeys? I want to make one with a cute wide mouth like most of yours have!

Any help or advice gratefully received...

Report going in to the RSPCA, Monkey division as we speak. That poor little creature, how sad for him. He needs a loving home, not to mention a new set of teeth. And as to letting him near the mushrooms... I wonder if that's why he seems to have changed colour - he looked green a couple of days ago, but now seems grey. Poor, poor Number 11.
