Product Description
Pattern available in both English, Dutch, and German.
Loxodonta and her big brother Elephas are two elephants made of african flowers.
The pattern includes photo’s and written instructions on how to make the flowers and how to join the flowers together to make your elephant. Loxodonta and Elephas are both made the same way.
Meterage & sizes: The size of your elephant depends on the yarn you use. To estimate your personal yardage, I advise you to make a flower hexagon, and weigh that after each round. Multiply the amounts by 39 as an estimate of what you will need for the finished elephant. Multiply the amount of the last round by 42 to account for the joining stitches. Use a crochet hook that is one size smaller than your yarn label advises.
As a guide Loxodonta is made using appr 140 grams (435 m) of sport weight yarn. She is 20 cm high, 30 cm long, and 15 cm wide. Elephas is made using appr 400 grams (660 m) of aran weight yarn. He is 28 cm high, 53 cm long, and 23 cm wide

Crochet Elephants
A brilliant pattern, clearly explained. I love my elephant!
Stunningly beautiful
I made this in yellow and grey and it was beautiful. It was a birthday gift for a friend in work and it got so many compliments. Easy to follow instructions made this a joy to make. The elephant for me was quite large so make sure you have plenty of stuffing, I also used a dk yarn. I would definitely make this again, I would highly recommend this too.
Pattern was clear and well laid out. The pictures were helpful when sewing the elephant together. Love this pattern, and am very happy with the finished product!!
The pattern was easy to follow and the pictures help with assembly. The author has a lot of creativity to create such a great pattern.
