Party Percy

Discover the joy of knitting with this adorable and cuddly elephant plush toy, designed by the talented Amanda Berry (@fluffandfuzz). This charming knitting pattern combines playful knitted stripes and vibrant blocks of color, making it perfect for adding a touch of whimsy to your collection. Made from soft acrylic DK yarn, this elephant stands at a delightful 23cm tall, making it an ideal gift for children or a lovely decorative piece for any nursery.

This knitting pattern is suitable for confident beginners and more advanced knitters alike, as it primarily utilizes single-pointed needles rather than knitting in the round. With clear instructions, you’ll master essential knitting techniques, including casting on and off, performing knit and purl stitches, and executing increases and decreases, all while gaining valuable skills in seaming to complete your project. The cute tail is created using an i-cord tube worked on two double-pointed needles, adding a unique touch to your handmade elephant.

Whether you're looking to enhance your knitting repertoire or searching for a thoughtful, handcrafted gift, this elephant pattern is both fun and rewarding to knit. Start your next knitting adventure today and bring this lovable elephant to life with just a few basic techniques!
