Take the second towel by the edge in the middle, if there is a loop, you can simply hang it on the hook. Roll up both sides of the towel with a tube and turn the seam down and wrap the corner that was hanging on the hook up. Expand the opposite part towards the corner, and move the edges to the sides. It should look like an elephant's head. It remains to connect it to the body, sew on eyes, decorate with a ribbon, attach hairpins or a keychain.
