This crochet pattern is my own author’s work and it is intended only for your
personal use.

It is forbidden to copy, distribute and publish the materials of this pattern in any
way both online and offline. You can sell the toys crocheted with the help of this
pattern. While showing the photos of your toys crocheted with the help of this pattern
in the Internet point the author of the pattern – Vasilchuk Vera (@cute_toys_by_vera)
MATERIALS AND TOOLS:
- yarn Jeans YarnArt (160 m/50 g) light gray color (I use №49) and additional
color for the dress;
- a hook, suitable for the chosen yarn (I use 1.9 mm);
- stuffing (synthetic fluff or hollofayber);
- wooden sticks to help to stuff the toy;
- a sewing needle;
- moulinet threads: white – to embroider the whites of the eyes, black – for the
brows,
- eyes 8 mm in diameter (halfbeads or safety eyes);
- a wire for a frame of the tail (I use a chenille wire)
- if you want to make a cotter pin fastening of the arms and legs, then you’ll need
the following: disks 15 mm in diameter – 4 pcs for the arms, disks 20 mm in diameter –
2 pcs for the head. T-shaped cotter pins: 20 mm – 2 pcs for the arms, 28 mm – 1 piece
for the head.
The size of the elephant is 18 cm, if using the pointed materials.
ADVICES:
1. Each detail begins from the magic ring. Crochet in a spiral.
2. Try to crochet rather tight. If the stitches are not rather tight, try to use a
smaller hook.
3. Stuff your toy in the course of crocheting. The tight stuffing gives a necessary
shape to your toy and helps to keep it.
4. If you make a toy for a child younger than 3 years, then it is better to use the
safety eyes.
5. You can use both cotter pin and thread fastening for the arms. You can just sew
the head.
