Friends, it is quite difficult to make amigurumi hedgehogs. In order to make a hedgehog amigurumi with a lifelike appearance, you will first need the appropriate types of yarn. Because this is the most important criterion to create the appearance of the hedgehog’s spines.
Baby Hedgehog Crochet PDF Pattern
The crochet hedgehog you see in the picture is designed in a somewhat amateur way, but it looks very nice because the yarn used is very suitable for the hedgehog. The color of the rope could have been a little different in the making of the hedgehog. However, you can change the colors if you wish.
