Isn’t he cute? Little Bully the elephant has made himself comfortable on his swim ring. He’s about to launch his little boat into the water.
Maybe you’d like to have a little cuddly elephant like this, too? He’ll be about 22 cm tall. You can crochet him using plush yarn, but he’ll turn out very cute with acrylic yarn as well. The little boat, swim ring, hat, and soles are made of cotton.
