Eleanora was a baby elephant character in a book my mother delighted in reading to my children when they were small. A couple of years ago, I managed to find a copy of the book in a second hand bookstore and this story came to mind when I was thinking of making an elephant cosy, so Eleanora it became.

The one size, 5 page pattern is worked here in the bright, ethnic inspired colours of Patons Fab Double Knitting. It can also be made from other double knitting oddments if tension is checked.

The cosy is a fun, quick knit.
