Thank you for this!! I love it! Gorgeous colors! What size head does this fit? Just wondering. I can’t wait to make one for nieces, nephews and cousins!! You rock!
Its for toddlers, 1-3 years of age. Might fit even older kids too
Hello I was wondering, can I please get a pattern for this totally cute hat and the baby size one as well? Thanks SO MUCH if your able to send it via email address provided.
Please put in SUBJECT “FREE SOCK MONKEY PATTERN” (if you can send it to me…. ty sooooo much!)
Try clicking the print or pdf file located at the bottom of the post. You may have to click the left side of the button to avoid the pin it button. Working on getting that fixed. Let me know how that works.
I love this darling pattern. But can not get it to print. Could you Please email me this pattern, I be would much appreciated.
Click the left side of the button. I will be fixing the issue with the pin it option popping up soon. Or you could hit CTRL P. Let me know if that doesnt work for you.
I love this pattern! I have adapted it to fit my elementary age kids and I used thier school colors instead of making the monkey face. They love their hats! Thanks for the pattern!
That is awesome! <3!
Would love to to be able to print this pattern for my own personal use but can’t hi-lite it. Why???
You can wither hit CTRL P or you can select the print icon at the bottom of the post. You may have to select the left side of the print icon so that the “pin it” doesn’t get in the way.
I made this for my 14 month old for Halloween because she LOVES sock monkeys and she won’t take the hat off. I got tons of compliments on it and am pretty sure it will be used at least through the rest of the winter. Thanks! And do you have any way I can upload a pic of mine?

oh and I bet the hat will fit until she is 3
