My son put in a special request for these, well he fetched the KPPPM and demanded a pair of Monkey's after seeing the pair finished for my MSS3 pal. :) I did have to downsize the pattern to fit the smaller socks and it was more sucessful than I thought possible. :)
EDIT: 25th Sept
The pattern was rewritten as follows
I used 12 stitches instead of 16.
Row 1 knit all
row 2 purl3 knit6 purl3
row 3 purl2 k2tog knit2 YO/YO
knit 2 SSK purl 2
row 4 purl2 knit8 purl2
row 5 purl1 k2tog knit2 YO knit2
YO knit2 SSK purl1
Row 6 purl1 knit 10 purl 1
row 7 Knit2tog knit2 YO knit4
YO knit2 SSK
row 8 Knit all
The rest of the pattern is knit the same as the original Cookie A pattern but uses 12/12/12/12 instead of 16 etc. :)

Cute Micro Monkeys!! :)
Oh that's so cute!
Child with taste obviously.
You have him well trained, KPPM no less, bless!
They are so fantastic!
Wow, how cute. And your son has extremely good taste in yarns. What size is the sock? Any chance I could have the resized pattern? I'd love to knit them for my nephew. It's his birthday in October.
Anni I would be delighted to share.
