Modification Mondays: Albert

 How cute is this little guy?? Everyone, meet Albert:



Original Pattern: Elijah

Knitter Extraordinaire:
Whitney (Rav Id, blog)

Mods:
Turned Elijah to adorable Elephant into Alberta, the super adorable monkey!! Project page for Albert is here, and included full details on exactly how she turned an elephant into a monkey.  Alberta even has a little i-cord tail, although the tail is not visible in the shot.


What Makes This Awesome: Are you kidding?! Monkeys make everything awesome! The very fact she turned an elephant into a monkey is pretty awesome, but her clear notes on exactly how to do it are invaluable for anyone who wants a little monkey of their own. It was so great of Whitney to share!


This monkey mod was so successful, she even made a little pink monkey named Bella. Here's a shot of Bella at a tea party with some other friends you may recognize:

Is that not the cutest tea party you've ever seen?! Swoon.

As for the party....it is a very fancy crowd (and, apparently, they're having a real great time!).
