Henrietta the Hedgehog is knitted in the round with the Magic Loop technique or she can be knitted on dps. I prefer the magic loop, it’s just easier for me:)
This is an internediate pattern, I have used the Loop/Fur stitch to make the ‘spikes’ they do take a little time but they are very sweet in the end.
I have included a link in the pattern to a Loop Stitch tutorial, you can click on it, visit the website and learn how to knit the Loop stitch, it’s really easy to learn:)

Approx 50 grams aran/worsted weight yarn,
