But just in case...<br />I don't understand how to do the top of the hat. The chart for the little elephants. Are there decreases I'm not seeing?<br />Where are the decreases or is it more white stitches should be added? First row of elephant legs I did was a 16 stitch repeat which doesn't work... Help!

Keep the same size needles, CO 18 more sts, then add some sort of 6 st motif to one side of Chart 1 (adding 18 sts total to the hat, which should make it big enough to fit an adult). You might need to work a few more rows of patterning before the decreases. And on the decreases, you'd have one more elephant motif. <BR/><BR/>I can't guarantee that would work, but it should.Kathleen Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08096607261757810034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-661356795743869465.post-83853390812674138342007-11-10T09:38:00.000-06:002007-11-10T09:38:00.000-06:00I love your red, white, and gray elephant hat!I wa...I love your red, white, and gray elephant hat!<BR/><BR/>I want one like it in my size =)<BR/><BR/>sheeptosweater@att.netAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-661356795743869465.post-77983504921602111732007-11-09T07:55:00.000-06:002007-11-09T07:55:00.000-06:00They are so Darling!They are so Darling!Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08871078803585575062noreply@blogger.com
