After making the ears, we proceed to knitting other parts. We form a “magic” ring and knit 6 SC in it. The second and third rows are also performed with single crochet, without making increases. And in the fourth and fifth we make an increase by knitting 7 SC. In the sixth and seventh rows we increase the number of Art. b / n to 8. That's all, the trunk is ready.
Now we begin to make the head. We increase the number of columns in the eighth row to 16 pcs. From the ninth to sixteenth row, we knit 24 columns. We make allowances according to the scheme "2 tbsp. B / n - 1 tbsp. B / n". From the fourteenth row, we begin to reduce the loops - we knit 16 columns. To do this, we repeat the pattern eight times: "skip 1 tbsp. B / n - then we knit 1 tbsp. B / n." In the fifteenth row, we reduce the number of loops to 12, making the necessary decreases. That's all - the elephant's head is ready.

We stuff the toy with a padding polyester, sew a hole and make a tail. We braid a braid of sufficient length of three threads, tie it, and leave a brush at the end.
Elephant legs are performed as follows. We make a "magic ring", we recruit 8 tbsp. b / n and knit in a circle four more rows with the same number of columns. Fill the legs with synthetic winterizer or cotton and sew them to the body. We attach ears to the head. We make the elephant eyes from two black beads. If desired, decorate our toy with a bow.
