FO: Liam’s Elefante

Posted by Elinor on March 6, 2008

Gah, thank god! I am finished the Elefante. I am on a finishing roll right now.

Elefante, the face!

Start: January 10ish?
Finish: March 6
Pattern: http://www.knitterella.com/SusanBAnderson/ElefantePattern.pdf
Yarn: My handspun, spun from the Mystery Bump from MDS&W, 2007.
Needles: Mostly US 5s, but occasionally US 6s, by accident (I’m not very bright).

Elefante

He has weird ears, but he’s pretty darn cute, in the end.

Okay, and I do like his tail.

The yarn’s a bit scratchy, but I think if I wash it maybe it’ll felt a bit, and soften up. I don’t mind it, but a 3-year-old might. He’s squooshable though!

Elefante, the feet
