Elephant Amigurumi Crochet Pattern PDF – Beginner Plush Toy

Digital PDF crochet pattern to make a soft, seated amigurumi elephant with oversized floppy ears and a long curved trunk. This listing is for a pattern only, not a finished item.

• Finished size: Approx 9 in (23 cm) tall seated using super bulky plush yarn and a 6.0 mm hook
• Estimated time: 4–6 hours
• Terminology: US crochet terms
• Construction: Continuous rounds (no joining unless stated)

Materials used in the pattern

• Super bulky (#6) polyester plush/velvet yarn (Elephant Grey main; White optional for tusk)
• 6.0 mm crochet hook
• Stitch marker, tapestry needle, scissors
• Fiberfill stuffing
• 14 mm black safety eyes

What you’ll make

• 1 head, 1 seated body
• 2 flat oval ears (unstuffed for a floppy look)
• 1 long trunk (lightly stuffed to curve)
• 2 arms, 2 legs, 1 nub tail

Pattern notes

• Use a stitch marker to track the first stitch of each round.
• Round stitch counts are mandatory targets; adjust tension to match.
• Plush yarn hides stitches—feel for stitch tops and count carefully.
• Stuff firmly and evenly as directed for clean shaping.

Safety

• Safety eyes are a choking hazard; for children under 3, embroider eyes instead of using plastic eyes.
• Always secure knots and trim ends inside the fabric so parts cannot be pulled loose.
