Oddments elephant

Another elephant! This one using the left overs of Patons Fairytale Colour 4 Me in yellow, blue, and green.

3mm needles as before. The pattern is Elijah.

And specially for Rosie, who wondered whether I was going to decorate the Christmas tree with elephants:

This is the tree at my in-laws house as we didn’t have a Christmas tree this year.

The pattern very conveniently uses almost exactly 1.5 balls of the Patons yarn, meaning that having knitted three solid coloured elephants I had enough left overs for a multicoloured one. I like how he has come out, although it would have been nice to have enough yellow for yellow ears rather than green. However I do think the green ears make him quite individual 🙂
