Knitted friends are the best friends, and Melly the Elephant gives unbeatable cuddles. Knitted in garter stitch, Melly also has a bright patchwork blanket saddle. Designed by Amanda Berry @fluffandfuzz, the elephant is knitted in acrylic DK yarns on single pointed needles (not in the round). A crochet hook is used to add a blue crochet border to the blanket. For confident beginners and above, other techniques used include casting on and off, knits, purls, increases and decreases, and seaming to finish.
