I've only made the Santa, Snowman and Elf so far, but when I told a friend of mine about them, she asked if there might be an elephant. So of course, I had to purchase it.

I absolutely love these bags. So easy to make with excellent directions. I've purchased many patterns from Knitting By Post, and haven't been disappointed once.
