Crochet Pattern for a Flat Elephant Toy Pattern
My daughter is in love with elephants. Especially since recently watching the new remade Dumbo and her love for all things elephant since finding out she's about to become a mom, and the whole nursery is Elephants!
She asked me if I could crochet a really cute flat-type stuffed elephant for Baby.
I did the usual picked up my hook and started making. A little bit of trial and error I think he's turned out pretty cute.This can be made any size - Bigger hook and Thicker yarn or Smaller,
using whatever you like really to make as you wish.
For the crochet elephants in the photo, I used a 3.500mm and cygnet kiddies supersoft
