Tree Trunks is a small elephant with the personality of a gentle, older Southern woman. She is worked in joined round from trunk to tail, with the seam hidden strategically under her trunk and legs. Ears and legs are crocheted separately and stitched to final figure with a yarn needle.

Finished figure measures about two and a half inches tall, though gauge for this project does not need to be exact. Work tightly enough to make sure that stuffing does not show through.
