This cute elephant called Elo hopes to find a little friend very soon! He likes to cuddle with babies but is also happy to serve as a wash cloth for older children.

If you use a 100 % cotton yarn, you can also work the motif as potholders or dishcloth. My tester Sandra even created a very lovely bag.

Crocheting with two colours is quite easy and is explained in detail in the pattern.
