April 26: otter and elephant

I put a Bobby pin in the fishing pole.

Today’s second toy is a knitted elephant. I designed this using a picture of the crocheted one from studiomadelaine.com I made that crocheted elephant with Hobby Lobby’s adore-a-ball. I also made the knitted one with that yarn. Love that yarn! Not many colors though, sadly.
