Here are lovely knitted elephants I hope you enjoy making them.The elephant pattern is free to use for charity and gifts, so please do not sell it, or items made from it.
If you plan to make this toy for a child aged 3 and under, I recommend that you embroider the eyes on the face.

The body, head and trunk of the elephant are worked in the round in one piece, the ears (worked on straight needles) and legs (worked in the round) are worked separately.

MATERIALS:
Any colorful yarn (about 25 g) (I use acrylic,100g, 300m= 328 yds)
Small amount black worsted-weight yarn for eyes and colored thread to embroider flowers on elephant’s body.
1 Set (4) double pointed knitting needles (dpn), size 2 (2.75mm)
Crochet hook, size 2.50 mm
polyester stuffing
Tapestry needle
