Amigurumi Elephant: a little girl

I made one more elephant to my daugher and to be a friend to Mio the Elephant.


As I made an elephant to my son, I had to make an elephant to my daugher as well. I changed quite everything. Made a trunk a bit shorter, legs and arms thinner, made a skirt as well. I used 18mm safety eyes, painted by myself with glitter effect. I used Katia Bamboo yarn and 2mm crochet hook.

I like the little skirt, even some pearls can be added. Pattern for Mio the Elephant is ready, will add this pattern as well (something extra).

Amigurumi Elephant Pattern

Amigurumi Elephant Pattern: Mio the Elephant
I want to present a new pattern to you. I have designed amigurumi elephant pattern.

And of course, special thanks goes to Amanda for helping me in editing.
And then Mio the Elepahant will be available in my Etsy shop. So keep an eye on this shop, won´t be long. This pattern contains many many photos and descriptions to make your project enjoyable and fun to make. This toy is perfect as cuddle toy and handmade toys are great - they have this something you don´t have with other toys.
Some photos of the elephant, hope you like him. Making a girl as well with skirt with the same pattern as a base. Will show it too.



I  used 2mm crochet hook and Katia Bamboo yarn, hand painted safety eyes (by me), 16mm, some felt for ears. I made the head and a trunk in one piece :) - I like the result.
8 pieces and two colours. I also made a little tail :) Elephant is approximately 25 cm tall/9,8 inches






Thank you for visiting!
