Meet Hamilton, the most huggable pig around! Hamilton loves to squeal really loud when you hug him, he might just be the loudest pig around. Hamilton is a very friendly pig who loves talking to other pigs, and other huggable animals. If you aren’t careful he might stay up all night talking to his friends.

Hamilton measures 7 inches using worsted weight yarn. The yarn you use, crochet hook, and tension while crocheting will make the size of your pig vary slightly.
