Description
This monkey such a classic - reminiscent of the monkeys our grandmas used to make - funky and so fun. He's just looking for a cozy bed to call home...

<br />I made this lil primate from the vintage pattern that has been around since the 1930s. And I use Rockford Red-Heeled socks, which are made in the USA - the very same brand and style of socks that were used to make sock monkeys during the Depression, over 70 years ago! Measures approximately 20 inches head to toe. Embroidered eyes make this monkey safe for younger kids...
