      I actually made it myself and haven’t typed the pattern up, yet. If you want, I can let you know when I have and send it your way?

        you made it yourself? that is so amazing! If you go to the effort, I would love a pattern to send her way. if not, no worries. no pressure.

    It’s adorable. It’s like a pusheen elephant. If you’re going to experiment with a second attempt, I’d request grey yarn, and maybe a longer trunk. (I don’t know anything about knit/crochet, so not I’m not even sure if a long trunk is possible.) I’d buy this in a store if I saw it.

      I didn’t have any plush grey yarn, so i just used the one I had the most of since I was designing from scratch and wanted to make sure I had plenty. If I make another, I’ll try a longer trunk for sure! I appreciate the feedback and I’m glad you’d buy him bc I’m going to try to sell him at a local flea market c:

        Please don’t undersell your work and effort. He absolutely has a very unique charm that will pull heart strings and wallets out

        Good luck though!
