Does anyone know of an elephant pattern that's not "cute"? My hubby loves elephants, we're making him a study thats becoming a "travel" room. But, even tho he's accepted a few from me, he doesn't like "cutesie" type things. Any FIERCE looking elephants out there?

Although the Posable Elephant (http://www.crochetnow.com/patterns/10/stuffed-jointed-elephant-crochet-pattern/) is still kind of cute, you could change the 'lool' on his face. And he's posable, so you could make it look like he's attacking?

How about something like this? I think it would make a really cool pillow edging.

The best elephant I have ever seen is the Annie's Attic one from the Animal Safari collection... it is so out of print but it is the best one out there - I know. It does you absolutely no good.
My copy is buried in the craft room right now - along with all my other vintage Annie's pattern sets - I have most of the good ones :)

I had started to design a realistic elephant but stopped partially through. I won't be getting back to it for quite some time - I have had a slew of requests for things...
