Miss Gelato Giraffe

One of our daughters first ever soft toy’s was a giraffe named Goffy. This giraffe continues to have so many adventures and he spends every night tucked up in bed. So Kay decided she wanted to create a knitted member of Goffy’s herd and here she is, Miss Gelato Giraffe! 

Kay loved every moment of creating Miss Gelato and the moment she knew she had succeed was when she noticed Miss Gelato had joined Goffy tucked up in bed.
