Omg, it is a red version of Tree trunks, I love it! So goofy.

Mom had an affaire with a tapir.

Cus momaphant needed some help from MrTapir and his massive prehensile fifth leg

It's adorable. It's like a pusheen elephant. If you're going to experiment with a second attempt, I'd request grey yarn, and maybe a longer trunk. (I don't know anything about knit/crochet, so not I'm not even sure if a long trunk is possible.) I'd buy this in a store if I saw it.

I didn't have any plush grey yarn, so i just used the one I had the most of since I was designing from scratch and wanted to make sure I had plenty. If I make another, I'll try a longer trunk for sure! I appreciate the feedback and I'm glad you'd buy him bc I'm going to try to sell him at a local flea market c:

Please don't undersell your work and effort. He absolutely has a very unique charm that will pull heart strings and wallets out

Good luck though!

I adore it! Just look at the cute lil guy!! I wanna hug him!

I think it came out great! I get it, though; I'm way too hard on myself and anything I make, too. ๐Ÿซ‚

I'm calling him an orbephant! I'm trying to design a line of Orbimals

[-] craftrabbit@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 weeks ago

That's so cool, make sure to keep posting them Orbimals!

[-] sasnak@piefed.blahaj.zone 4 points 2 weeks ago

I will, for sure! I haven't decided what to make next. Since people like the elephant so much, I'll probably make another and try to write up the pattern c:

[-] sasnak@piefed.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 weeks ago

I'm planning to try and sell him and a bunch of other stuff at a local flea market, so hopefully other people share your sentiment! c:

[-] altphoto@lemmy.today 6 points 2 weeks ago

But you love your elephant right? That's all that matters. Nobody should tell your elephant who to love.

[-] sasnak@piefed.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 weeks ago
[-] altphoto@lemmy.today 3 points 2 weeks ago

See, that's what's important.

Thank you! <3 I'm designing some Orbimals and I love how fat and round they are

[-] naught101@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

I like it's attitude. It's an apt expression, given the state of the world today

[-] Kolanaki@pawb.social 5 points 2 weeks ago

I like him.

[-] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 weeks ago

That's no elephant!

That...

... and I love him.

[-] SapphironZA@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 weeks ago
