Old yella was actually an elephant!

I cannot stress this enough – this rattle is HUGE.

I am crocheting the dog rattle by Suzie Fry (on Ravellry) and I was expecting something a bit more baby sized. This thing is like a full sized marraca.

I do realise that a lot of this is to do with using 8ply yarn and a 4mm hook, so it’s reasonable to expect it to be twice as large… but still! It’s huge!
