Ungoo the Amigurumi Elephant
Ungoo Originally uploaded by vin E Amigurumi is a word derived from the japanese words Ami meaning knitted or crocheted and Nuigurumi stuffed doll. Worked entirely in spirals it was a fun and quick project to work on. I initially made it as a gift for one of my friends who recently had a baby and knowing babies it probably is not such a good idea letting them chew on acrylic yarn so decided against it. To make it interesting to a baby I converted it into a rattle by inserting a small tin box with tiny jingle bells in it and it sounds great. I got this pattern on the Lion brand website and intend to make a whole jungle. Let's see.
