I would like to share with you a free crochet elephant pattern called Enola designed by Vikusivasok. The height of the crochet toy is about 16 cm. The toy has big eyes and very big ears. The designer used Gazzal Jeans yarn and 1.75 mm crochet to make this elephant. The legs and body of the elephant are crocheted in one piece and the other parts are sewn.

We see that the head and trunk of the elephant are also crocheted in one piece. I recommend that you pay attention to the color transitions especially on the legs while crocheting the toy. Let’s crochet the toy step by step.
