Father’s Day Monkey Amigurumi

For the Monkey of the Month of June, we would like to introduce to you a Father’s Day Monkey Amigurumi!  Mother had her month in May, so it would only be fair for Father to have his special time this month.

Here is the Father’s Day Monkey Amigurumi coming home from a hard day at work.  And yes, he carries around a cute little notebook with a heart on it in his suitcase…not by choice of course!  It must have been one of his kid’s pranks…

What I like best about this Father’s Day Monkey Amigurumi is his tie, which my sister designed and assembled out of felt.  We also experimented with a different color combination this time, using light blue as his face and dark blue for the body.  I think it makes him look rather manly and handsome, don’t you??

Mother is excited and ready to go shopping now that Father has come back.

What’s this?!  All of a sudden, Father is ambushed by his troublesome son (nicknamed “Chipmunk” for his chubby cheeks) who can’t wait to eat the strawberry shortcake he helped bake with Mother.  (Side note: the strawberry shortcake was crocheted out of the same yarn as my Baby Whale Amigurumis.  Will post about that later for sure, as I am still working on “baking” other types of cakes!)

Now his daughter joins in on the fun with a Father’s Day present she hopes will not disappoint!  The present, by the way, she wrapped last minute right before he came home, anticipating she’d have plenty of time to do so while he does his “sit in the bathroom with newspaper after a hard day’s work” ritual.

“Stop monkeying around and come down from your father’s head, Chipmunk.  Let’s celebrate Father’s Day properly!”  Mother scolds.  And with that, the monkey amigurumi family happily celebrates another lovely Father’s Day.

Happy Father’s Day!!!

Mother’s Day Monkey Amigurumi

Hey everyone it’s Mother’s Day!  Do anything special for mom today?

Going along with our little monkey of the month theme, we decided to make a Mother’s Day monkey amigurumi!  Surprise!!  Yeah, not much of a surprise but hey it’s a good idea especially if you’ve completely run out of gift ideas for mom this year.  Why not just make a hand-crafted and personalized monkey amigurumi for mom?  Moms always like what their children make them.  It’s like being back in elementary school and bringing home a teacher-forced-me-to in-class art project for Mother’s Day.  And with nothing else to do with it, mom will slap a magnet on it and show it off on the sustenance box:  the refrigerator!!!

Well, hopefully you don’t think of it that way!  :D   We love our mommies and I’m sure they’ll love anything you try to do to thank them.

But if you really want to do something personal and special for mom, then take the crochet mom a Mother’s Day amigurumi approach.

Of course, this monkey would not be considered a mom if it didn’t even have a kid monkey to go with it!

What do you think?  Does the apron on our Mother’s Day monkey amigurumi make it look motherly?
