This is the Hedgehog Pillow pattern. Isn’t it just the cutest thing you’ve ever seen? I love his little nose–and look at those feet! I purposefully designed them so that his cute little toes were left free and wiggly. Bonus: his soft bobble-stitch back makes him extra cuddly!

This pattern is written using US crochet terms. You must have an understanding of the basic crochet stitches (sl st, ch, sc, hdc, dc, magic circle, etc.), and you must be able to work in the round and work the bobble stitch using the instructions provided in the pattern.

To make this pattern you will need:

  • 5 skeins of Lion Brand Hometown USA in Little Rock Granite (or any other bulky yarn of your choice)

  • 1 skein of Lion Brand Hometown USA in Los Angeles Tan (or any other bulky yarn of your choice)

  • Less than half a skein of Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice yarn (or any other heavy worsted weight yarn of your choice) in the following colors: Black, Taupe, Pink

  • A tiny amount of Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice yarn (or any other heavy worsted weight yarn of your choice) in White (optional—for the eyes)

  • Size N/P 10.00mm crochet hook (for body)

  • Size I 5.5mm crochet hook (for face & feet details)

  • Round pillow form, 16-inch diameter
