garter stitch elephant- one of my gifts
I got the pattern from here: http://www.angelfire.com/art2/oasisguild/news2_5.html#pattern

I knit up all the pieces, including the blanket that was supposed to be on top of him ahead of time, and finished stitching him up at the restaurant before the guest of honor arrived. Unfortunately the blankie was too small, so the pachyderm must go with out.
