Pattern Notes
The Elephant is worked seamlessly from the bottom-up from the bottom of the body to the top of the head. The top of the head is grafted together using the Kitchener stitch. The ears, arms and legs are picked-up and knit on using purl bumps as a guide for placement. The hooded sweater is worked seamlessly from the top-down and separately. The Mouse is worked seamlessly from the top-down starting with the head. The body, legs, arms, and tail are picked up and knit on.

The 16-page pattern includes photo tutorials and exclusive instructional video links.
