Meet Esmo the Elephant. She is the most kind & thoughtful little elephant you will ever meet. She is always baking treats for her little friends and is never far away from a cuppa with a chum. Her favourite thing to do is to sit down & write a good story. You never know, you might find one day, that she is a published author, with many children’s books to her name. If you ever get your hands on one of them, you will be in for a real treat.

This little elephant is a great pattern for any crochet lover, or a beginner crocheter wanting something a little more challenging. It uses the simple Amigurimi method of crocheting in the round and is easy to follow. Hope you enjoy it.
