I am possibly not the most qualified to answer this but here is what I would use:-

1. Chocolate 076
2. Blush 010
3. Chocolate 076 (depends on the skin tone you want though ;) )

I too have Bonnie's Thunderthighs and whilst I am trying things out I have bought a couple of bags of mixed so I can see what I will actually used and then get single bags in those colours.

Hi Neil,

I used to buy the mixed bags of 360s but you get to the same problem as with mixed 260s/160s - lots of the colour you don't use and little of the colour you want.

The way forward imho is a few bags of mixed and then most of the single colours too. Fuscia for teddybears is defo the way forward!

1, When I make the monkey I have him climbing a palm tree & have the hat/tree part made in goldenrod but mocha would be good as well so that it would cotrast with either an orange or chocolate monkey.
2, I use blush or peach
3, Chocolate
