How to crochet a superhero monkey

Get all the information you need to crochet four little Elemonk superhero monkeys.

The Elemonks was my idea for the crochet pattern design challenge set by Hobbii yarn. Elemonks are four little monkey amigurumi superheroes with superpowers that match the four elements - Fire, Earth, Water, and Sky.

The Fire Elemonk can set fire to anything it wishes with the flick of its wrist. The Earth Elemonk simply stares at the ground for it to shatter and cause catastrophic destruction to any evil presence in its way. The Water Elemonk hums a tune to create beautiful waterfalls or deadly tsunamis. Lastly, the Sky elemonk can use its breath to create tornados and cyclones.

To crochet these cuties, you simply need to access two patterns on my webpage and follow the additional instructions below. Remember, you don’t have to crochet four monkeys, you could crochet one monkey and give them four costumes for dress-up parties! The choice is yours.

Whatever you decide, I would absolutely love to see your creations. Don’t forget to share your makes with me on social media using the hashtag #CillaCrochets and by tagging me @cillacrochets. Happy crocheting!
