ASSEMBLY:

2) Sew the legs. The place of attachment of the legs depends on what pose you want your amigurumi monkey to be in. If you want it to stand, sew it directly to the bottom of the body, at some distance from each other, so that the crocheted toy gains stability.
3) Sew on the tail.

4) Sew on the face. The top of the face should be positioned approximately around row 10 or 11.
5) Sew the eyes onto the area around the eyes, then sew this piece onto the face.
