Elemeno (LMNO) the Elephant
Meet Elemeno! (LMNO)
Elemeno is Big! I designed this in colors that are unisex so I wanted the name to also be unisex. This can be a girl or a boy, but it is big! My example is almost 30”!
I have used more than half of one large skein of Caron One Pound yarn in Mixed Grey and also some Pale Plum from RHSS.
update: after a few requests I have included a “cheat sheet” to give detailed instructions on each increasing and decreasing round. Use the cheat sheet if you need to let you know the exact numbers/details on increasing/decreasing.
PLEASE READ
This pattern is for at least Intermediate to ADVANCED Amigurumi style crocheters. It is an abbreviated CHART pattern. I give you all the body parts in chart/number/round form so that your Elephant will end up the same size with the same dimensions as Elemeno. You also get all the photos in the pattern for reference.
I also have plenty of free patterns in my library that will show you how I write patterns to see if my paid patterns will be understood by you.
I do have lots of tips and tricks and show you where/what round I have everything placed. This is a 12-page PDF with pictures and also a link to my video tutorial on how to do the ears. My video tutorial is on youtube.
If you have amigurumi knowledge and know how to work in the round - ex. 6,12,18,24 etc with increases and decreases you won’t have any trouble. This is probably not a beginner level pattern, although if you know how to work in the round maybe.
This is a big animal! But, with crochet you can custom this to make any color and make he a she and make a completely different elephant - think pink, white, blue etc. What a great nursery gift!
I would love to see your elephants made from this pattern so please tag me on IG @theburgundybasket #elemenotheelephant
This and all my patterns use US CROCHET TERMS.
