I’m here with two crochet elephant patterns, Penny and Renny, in milk-colored colors. Amigurumi crochet elephants are children’s favorite toys. That’s why I think everyone should definitely make them. This crocheted elephant stands approximately 27 cm tall when completed. I’ll list the necessary materials below, and if you want the elephant’s arms and legs to move, you can use plastic connectors. This will create a fully jointed amigurumi crochet elephant. Now, let’s take a look at how to make milk elephants step by step.

Materials:
cotton yarn
plush yarn
2.5 4 hooks
large needle
25mm and 35mm joints

Description: milk elephants penny and renny are crocheted with different sizes of crochet, for visuality. boy ranny is crochet with a hook #4 mm, free-loop crocheting, girl penny is crochet with a hook #2.5 mm, free-loop knitting, using 3 skeins of yarn for two elephants. and a little half-cotton for the ears, and for tightening the face. the filling is not strong. large joints for the legs, especially when knitting with a hook #2.5, requires a little effort when inserting.
