This hedgehog is sweet and round (and softer than the real thing!). He’s the perfect Valentine’s Day or year round gift for a loved one. The hedgehog body is crocheted in the round and the spines are worked in rows and then added to the body. The hedgehog is my original amigurumi design and works up quickly.

Your PDF purchase includes written instructions with a photo tutorial. You will receive directions for crocheting the hedgehog and the heart. You’ll need the yarn colors pictured (worsted/aran weight), a size E/3.5mm crochet hook, a yarn needle, stuffing, safety eyes, and an intermediate crochet skill level (or give it a try if you’re an ambitious beginner!). The finished hedgehog is about 4.75” tall.

The hedgehog pattern is also available for free on my blog (www.crochettoplay.com). This PDF is available as a service to crocheters who would like the pattern to be printer friendly, ad-free, and with more detailed picture support.

When you give a child the toys you have handmade from these patterns, you are giving tools for story-telling, dramatic play, understanding character, and more!

Patterns are written in US crochet terminology and are meant for the intermediate crocheter.
