when doing the round braid it is like the cross knot except with mor strings. Pictures for help are above. 11 rows of round braids make the body.

Cut 130 inches of cord into short lenghts. Then stuff it into the body of the elephant.

divide the cords into 4 groups and do a cross knot.

Thread the front leg cords into your cross not of the body. Picture above.make all the legs on the sam side. Seperate cord into 4 groups again. And make another cross knot.

Pick 2 cords from each group make a cross knot with these 8 cords. Pick 1 cord from each group and make a cross knot. Now repeat 10 times to make the trunk.

Make a flat braid.

Make a loop and tie it to the end of the elephant.
