Crochet Amigurumi Elephant—Nyla the Indian Elephant
I developed this crochet amigurumi elephant pattern following the steps outlined in my series How to Become a Published Designer.
Design Process
First, I looked at the editorial calendar. The editors sought embellished crochet projects. I knew I would crochet an animal.
Second, I determined that I would adorn an elephant.
Third, I researched elephants in Indian. I discovered the Indian Elephant Festival. It takes place in March.
You can find the pattern in the August 2015 issue of Crochet World Magazine. To help beginners, future posts will provide information regarding crochet stitches and materials.
