Upgrade from Catalina 10.15 - can I go to Monterey?

I have a Macbook pro mid 2014 13 inch retina and am running mac os Catalina 10.15.7 Apple says I can upgrade to Big Sur (11.6) but not to Monterey OS 12. Has anyone tried upgrading to Monterey? Love my computer and don't want another at the moment.
