Pink Elephant


My friend Adelyn asked me to make this sweet elephant for her daughter. It was fun and pretty fast to make and I even learned a couple new things. It's far from perfect but I hope it's ok! I get so nervous when I make anything for anyone.



The pattern can be found here.

So cute! I am the same way about my knitted projects. I worry that the sweater will never be worn or the toy never played with. I hope she likes it. :)

It turned out so adorable, and now Will needs one. He obviously loves it, since he wanted to show it to us on Skype :-)

Seriously, I was more than a little obsessed with this via skype. Maybe the trev's and I should consider producing children....Ha. We're just going to have a flock of alpacas.

That pink elephant and this cake should hook up and go to a party together:
