Here is a softly stuffed, pillow-like elephant with just enough swagger to keep the knit interesting. This versatile pattern works beautifully with any yarn weight, allowing you to create the perfect size for your needs.

A simple design with oversized ears and a softly textured cable trunk and lots of potential! Add some embroidery, color blocking or Fair Isle, oh or maybe striped!

The arms include a built-in opening to hold an optional removable teether ring, adding a practical feature for babies and toddlers. NOTE: lighter weight yarns may not be able to support the removable teether rings.

Techniques: Judy’s magic cast-on; knit-in-the-round; knit flat; cables, Kitchener stitch, duplicate stitch


Gauge: any yarn weight- Because Sassy is lightly stuffed it requires a smidge tighter gauge, but not stiff, so the fabric keeps stuffing inside while still staying soft and squishy. Knit a small swatch and see if the fabric feels good to you!

Finished Measurements: varies by yarn weight, DK weight is about 9” tall and 5.5” wide and 2” deep
