I had a hard time picking a new project, but finally decided to try a tiny monkey with the same general pattern as the big one. The big one was a lot easier to make, as it turns out. I used size 3 needles for the head, body, legs, arms, and tail and then switched to size 1 for the face, ears and feet. It was a tough time, even with the tiny needles. Like with the big monkey, every stitch made a difference because of the scale. Then I used black seed beads for the eyes, and I had to use a ridiculously thin-eyed bead needle to sew them on. Oh, and I also made one of his feet upside-down, but whatever. I'm trying to let that go.
So far, the monkeys seem to be getting along well:
