It's already the end of October in the yard, and we can already say, we are going to the finish line at the end of 2015 and the onset of the long-awaited 2016 monkey. In place of the fluffy and airy sheep, the symbol of 2015, which she was, comes a cheerful and funny monkey. Year promises us a lot of good changes, which will be easy, fun, how is the life of a funny monkey. No matter how difficult it is to finish the year, you still need to brace yourself and meet the next year with all the honors. New Year is always a new branch, which you need to step over with ease with new thoughts, dreams and desires. St. Nicholas Day, New Year, Christmas and Kutia are the most magical holidays of the year, so you need to prepare for magic as well. What a holiday without a Christmas tree? Her presence in the house is simply necessary, it is especially desirable that she be real with her forest and natural smell. We hang beautiful garlands, a brilliant rain, New Year's figures throughout the house, and we hang beautiful balls on the Christmas tree. Well, of course, it is customary from year to year to always hang a ball or a figure on a Christmas tree, on which there will be a small animal next year. So on the Christmas tree in 2016 must be a monkey. You can buy something in the store with this fun beast, or you can be a little unique and sew funny felt monkeys yourself and decorate both your Christmas tree and congratulate your family and friends with such an interesting present.
Now we will consider a master class on tailoring an interesting monkey from felt and for this we need:
• Felt brown, beige and white, soft and 1 mm thick;
• A pair of peepholes with cilia with a diameter of 12 mm;
• Threads are white and brown;
• needle;
• Pattern;
• Rhinestones silver and emerald;
• Red satin ribbons 3mm wide;
• Gold bells;
• Sintepon;
• scissors;
• Pencil;
• Glue or glue gun.

We lay out the pattern and cut out such parts of the body from it.

Now we attach these elements to the felt and cut out two figures of the trunk, two tails and two heads from brown felt, and cut the face out of white felt.

We fold the blanks of the body and begin to sew them with cape stitches. Starting in the middle, we begin to fill the body with filler.

The body is sewn, go to the head. Fold the parts of the head.

Stuff and stitch brown blanks. Now we take the brown threads, pierce the white face and begin to sew the face to the head seam forward.

Now we sew the mouth and nose in the center with the thread so that the face is smiling. We attach eyes.

Now we sew the blanks of the tail together and also fill it with filler a little. All details are ready, you can proceed to the assembly of the monkey. The monkey will turn out to be hanging, so the hands will be down.

Glue the head on the body, on top of the tail. Glue rhinestones on the ears, tail and legs. We cut two segments of the red ribbon, one will be a loop, and in the second we thread a bells and tie a bow.Glue a bow with a bell below the muzzle, and glue the loop from the tape onto the legs at the top.
