I would like to introduce you to the crochet amigurumi pattern of a plush elephant named Zephyr, a design by Svetlana Ostanina. The height of the crochet toy is about 20 cm. It has quite sufficient dimensions for a toy. The designer used Himalaya Dolphin Baby plush yarn and a 4 mm hook to crochet this elephant.
