my sisters best friend is pregnant with her second child, so my sister asked me if i could make her a little gift. so i decided to knit her a little elephant with some scraps of yarn i had lying around.
two weeks later it's finished, and isn't it the cutest? :)
i used a dotted vintage fabric for the ears and paws. i would have used buttons for the eyes, but that's not very baby-friendly, so i embroidered the eyes with black wool instead.
the knitting went quite fast; stuffing the pieces, putting them together and sewing the fabric on was the hardest/slowest part. i really enjoyed making it, i hope the mommy and her baby will love it too.
