All three animals are about 6″ long when worked in bulky weight yarn with a G/4.5mm hook, or you can use worsted weight yarn and an E hook to end up with miniature versions like the baby elephants below:

    I love the AfricAmi! I will buy them as soon as I have time (I have soooo many projects lined up I want to do). And I might buy the AquaAmi too. And maybe some Fuzzy Friends. I just bought a lot of yarn, so I can get started right away!
