Hedgehog Tanoshi Doll.
The finished doll is approximately 5,9’’ / 15 cm / tall.

Materials needed
• 4 double-pointed needles in a size suitable for the yarn weight you are using. I recommend using needles a size or two smaller than the yarn calls for, to produce a firm fabric. İ used Needles size US 2½ (3mm).
• White yarn for head. I used Nako baby Hoşgeldin / 60% bambu, 40%
polyamid ; 100gr – 230m /
• Light green yarn for body. I used Nako baby Hoşgeldin / 60% bambu, 40% polyamid ; 100gr – 230m /
• Grey colored eyelash yarn for the hood. I used Verbana / 58% Polyamid ; 36% Metallic; 6% Polyester: 50gr – 25m /
• Black yarn for hair
• Toy stuffing
• Yarn needle
• Stitch holder
• Pair of black plastic eyes ( 5 mm )
• Pair of blue glass eyes for hedgehog
All rows are worked in the round, this helps avoid ugly seams .
