This is what Tosya will look like at the end of the work.
Let's study our work step by step.
Stage one. Tosi's pattern.
The pattern we will use is the simplest one. It consists of 4 head parts, 2 body parts, 3 leg parts (each) and 2 front paw parts (each). You also need to make 4 ear parts. All of them are presented in the figure.
Stage two: starting from the head.
We sew the heads together sequentially from 4 parts. We insert a wire inside the trunk to give it a more lively and mobile appearance. After stuffing the product, you can immediately glue the eyes.
Here's a top view of our head.
Here's the view from the other side.
Stage three: body and ears.
Now it’s time to sew 2 parts of the body and fill them with holofiber. This is what it will look like.
Now we make the ears, we make them from 4 parts, lightly stuff them.
Later we sew them to the head.
Stage four: limbs.
Now we need to make the upper limbs from 2 parts.
Then we make the lower limbs from 3 parts.
Stage five: decorations.
For our elephant Tosya to actually look like a girl, she needs to knit such a cute skirt. We will crochet.
In addition to the skirt, you need to knit the following rings on the limbs, which will also become a kind of decoration for our toy.
Here is a decoration for the lower limb.
Here is the decoration for the upper limb.
Now we sew the head and body, and knit a beautiful headband on the heads, finish it with a flower and glue or sew a bead there.
Now all that's left to do is to sew on our Tosa's lower and upper limbs, sew a funny skirt to her body, and secure the decorations on her limbs with threads.
All that remains is to admire our beauty.
She looks, of course, somewhat exotic, but she is still an elephant.
