Mario the Hedgehog is filled with so much personality and charm that everyone who meets him just immediately falls in love. Mario is knitted in the round on a set of four US size 3 double pointed needles. His ears and feet can be either knitted on the same size needles or crocheted with a size G crochet hook. You will need worsted weight wool yarn in two colors, polyester fiberfill stuffing, a pair of 6mm black acrylic safety eyes, and a very small amount of black yarn to embroider on the nose. The finished toy will be approximately 5.5 inches from nose to rump.
