Finished size: 8-1/2in tall and 14-1/2in long. An elephant with its trunk up is meant to symbolize good luck. This didn't make sense to me because I'm originally from Africa where an elephant with its trunk up means it's about to charge and you're outta luck! but Let's go with the positive! I couldn't recommend this pattern for beginners because the tusks and trunk are a little bit fiddly. Georgie will be a cute gift for anyone you feel could do with a little bit of luck in their life
