When I get the chance, I'll have to show a pic of a cute monkey holding a banana plush I got from a claw machine this past Saturday.

Yes, that is the lyrics of one of the songs from Taylor Swift's new album on the screen in the bg. Me and friends were making fun of it lol

Yup, the first claw machine I did on the first attempt! It was meant to be!

It was a claw machine arcade, so they weren't going to be rigged like ones in the grocery store or in the mall walking space.

I have found me a crochet monkey tutorial. I have to go fetch my brown and tan yarn from storage this weekend. I really want to make my own. And if it's easy enough, I might try making some to sell, idk. I just really want to be able to make things to sell.

Etsy

The creator of the crochet monkey pattern had said it's fine to sell them if I make any using their pattern as long as they receive credit. In case you were wondering that. I try to find patterns where the creator says its fine to sell the finished product you made with that pattern.

Very cool! Have you sold stuff on etsy before?

I think perhaps the knitting community would be very opening to sharing. That's what my gut says (although I've think there have been squabble among the in-person knitting clubs). ;)

No, I haven't found out what I'd want to make to sell on Etsy. I hope I find the monkey crochet tutorial to be pretty easy. I'd love to make monkeys of whatever color and sell them. Perhaps I could even start to make accessories for them eventually, crochet banana, maybe like a little jacket or something. But that's to be thought about later.

I love you are inspired!!

They would make great gifts for Christmas too! Save some money & give something extra special by being hand made with love & enthusiasm!

I was watching "hazardous history" and they mentioned that monkey's use to be sold in advertisements on the back of comic books & actually shipped through the mail! They said the monkey's arrived hungry, angry & scared & the first thing they usually did was bite whoever opened the box!

Doesn't surprise me that that was how the monkeys reacted. People underestimate how strong monkeys are, too.

Yeah, I wouldn't be happy after being bounced around in a box for a day or more with no food either...
