This pattern is available in print for $5.00.

Packs of mischievous and misunderstood flying monkeys, I can handle. Legions of flying monkeys bent on world domination by an evil puppet master, I cannot. Either way, you can now make your own. My versions wear Golden Caps. If you choose the dark road of enslavement, you’re on your own as to designing headwear, because in this instance I firmly believe that what Madame Defarge would knit involves simian liberation.

Gauge is not critical to this pattern.
