What a super colour Gilraen, which yarn is it?

I love my monkeys to bits... not literally of course.

That looks lovely.
I have yet to try this pattern.

Is this the origional monkey pattern? I am sure I have seen them somewhere where the purl stitches were knitted and that gave a nice effect too.

It is Piece of Beauty Merino sock yarn (unfortunately discontinued) in Granite Falls.

The colour is more turquoise in better light.

It is the original pattern for my swap monkey pal Smile
