Ein Schnuffelelefant

...ist fertig geworden! Herr Domic hat ihn "Pinkelfant" getauft, weil er pink und ein Elefant ist - das fand ich so allein dann doch zu hart für den kleinen Kerl und so hab ich ihm noch einen Vornamen gegönnt: Er heisst jetzt Paule Pinkelfanti.

Ich hab zwar die Anleitung wieder nicht richtig geblickt - der Rüssel soll eigentlich mit der offenen Seite nach aussen angenäht sein - aber er gefällt mir auch so sehr gut.

Meet Paule Pinkelfanti!

Wanted to try another of those cute Doudous - why not make a pink elefant? Love him (sure it is a “he” although he is pink) - used the pink cotton from the Wolle Hartmuth pack for head and arms and leftovers of Allround and sempre for the dress.

Left out the edging at the Granny square for a less girly look (well, and because I wanted to start my Fuenf-is-Truempf-Socks).

Did not have a close look at how the trunk is supposed to look, which is why I attached it with the closed side out and not open, as intended. Neverless, I think he looks cute anyhow.
If I made im again, I would however try to add some kind of a neck - he is not very stable there - I threaded some yarn around the attachment part, but it is not really stable.

ETA: Mr. Domic insists that I have to mention it was HIS idea to call this little guy Pinkelfant - as he is PINK and he is an ELEFANT.
