Know a pachyderm fan who needs a little pick-me-up? Whip them up an adorable Emotional Support Elephant holding a sweet message filled with puns! Our fluffy elephant pattern makes a great present and is perfect for market stalls. The pattern also includes a PDF of the tags in three different sizes to suit different yarns. Instructions are also provided on how to attach the tags to the amigurumi.

This crochet amigurumi pattern is written for beginners and neurodiverse crafters. The abbreviated instructions are followed by a breakdown in italics making it easier to understand what you need to do in each round. If you’ve had trouble reading patterns in the past, we hope that you’ll give our patterns a try!

One of the best things about this pattern is that it only uses a small amount of yarn, so get out your scraps. Just remember that the hook size will depend on your yarn thickness and tension. Using chenille yarn and a 4mm hook, our Emotional Support Elephant is approximately 8.5cm tall. The size will vary depending on yarn, hook, and tension.
