<p>Well, he&#39;s not really a mammoth, he&#39;s an elephant. Or a miniature crochet interpretation of an elephant. He&#39;s fuzzy, though!</p>
<p>I haven&#39;t really crocheted anything other than blankets, scarves,&#160;or trims before, so I was a bit apprehensive about trying to follow a pattern (particulary as the US patterns use a different terminology to the English ones that I learned with). Still, a couple of imperfections aside, I&#39;m really please with out he turned out.</p>
<p>The pattern is a free one from <a href="http://www.lionbrand.com/">Lion Brand</a>, and he&#39;s the Amigurumi Elephant (I&#39;d link to the pattern, but you need to register - for free - to see it). If you&#39;re on Ravelry, you can check out the pattern (and other examples made) <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/amigurumi-elephant-2">here</a>. My project is <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/shessassy/amigurumi-elephant">right here</a>.</p>
<p>The yarn I used is a merino/angora blend, from <a href="http://naturallyyarnsnz.com/y_sensation.htm">Naturally Yarns</a>.</p>
