Lately I have been dabbling in a little amigarumi ("little animals"), a genre of crocheting that can only be described and ridiculously cute. Armed with some basic crocheting stitches and a good instruction book + some slow motion instruction care of youtube, I set forth on making an elephant. This is how we turned out....First shot missing his limbs!
Size wise he ended up a little larger than I originally anticipated (shown next to a finger puppet) in part due to using a larger crochet hook, but also I think the project was just a bit larger than I thought.
Here he is all finished up and handsome, and with a fetching green scarf, he's ready for the winter!
