Flora the Elephant

This is an original pattern of my design to make a shy and adorable little elephant. She wears a sweet frilly dress (part of the pattern, not made separately) and is accessorised with a flower.

The pattern is quite straightforward and suitable for beginner/intermediate crocheters. The instructions are detailed and easy to follow if you know the basic stitches and techniques used to make amigurumi. The pattern is written using US crochet terms, and the list of abbreviations includes the UK alternatives.

Yarn needed, double knitting weight:

25g pale grey yarn (or any other colour for body).

25g pink yarn (or any other colour for dress).

Small amount green yarn (or any other colour for flower).
