Elephants are Big and Strong and very Wild, but turn them into yarn and add to that stripes, ribbed texture, nubby or bumpy texture, ribbon tabs and an Elephant with Squeaky arms, rattle arms and teething rings and you have the complete package to keep baby stimulated and busy.
As the added bonus you get the instructions to make 2 cute Panda rattles. One has layers of different sizes and the other crochet covered cabone (round plastic rings found at most fabric stores in the notions area) to fascinate.
There is a tutorial on how to make your own rattle insert with the pattern.
Blanket is 24-1/2” X 27-1/2”
Layered Rattle is 7-1/2” long
Ring Rattle is 10” long
This is a pattern of my own design.
