Cute, cuddly, and quick to crochet! One of my most favorite woodland creatures, the hedgehog can be crocheted is no time at all. This is a simple pattern but can also be customized. You could use the loop stitch (like you see HERE in my Cabbage Patch Doll Hat) to make the back “spikey” or use fur yarn instead. Add a tiny crochet heart to the side of it for a Valentines day gift. So many little ways to tweak this pattern and make it extra special!
Materials:
– Size H Crochet Hook
– Bernat Super Value Yarn in Taupe (dark brown) and Oatmeal (cream color)
Shop all yarn HERE on Yarnspirations.com
– 12mm black safety eyes
– Poly-fil Fiber Stuffing
– Tapestry Needle

Hi Sarah, I have been following you and your patterns for several years now, and really like so many of your patterns! Recently, I have been looking for a Hedgehog pattern to make into a pincushion. Yours is just perfect! I would like your permission to make him/her about half the size of your stuffed-animal hedgehog. If you agree, I would also like to post my little hedgehog pincushion on my Facebook, and also the crochet groups that I’m a member of. I would link to your pattern, from my personal site I’m developing. If you would rather not, I do understand, and will just keep my little hedgehog and enjoy it here at home! Oh yes, I would also like to give it 4 little feet, so it would stay upright – –
Marny CA says
Ms. Coleman, I would love to see your finished hedgehog as a pincushion! How??

It is really nice, my nephew’s birthday is coming near and I am searching for a gift online for him. I will surely think about this because he will be 1 year old and this is a nice gift. I was reading reviews in BonusCatch because I love to play online games and because of those games, I can buy an expensive gifts for my nephew.
Debra Carn says

I‘m very happy, Now I have a cutte hedgehog.
Ashley says
Would this pattern still work if I used a smaller yarn size and hook? Or any other tips on how to tweak it to make it a bit smaller? I was thinking about attaching a little lovey blanket to the bottom, but it seems fairly big for that in its current size.

اهمیت کیفیت اجر در ساختمان سازی
کیفیت اجر در ساختمانسازی از اهمیت بسیار بالایی برخوردار است قیمت آجر سفال دولت آباد اصفهان و تأثیر مستقیمی بر دوام، ایمنی و کارایی سازهها دارد.
برخی از دلایل اهمیت کیفیت اجر در ساختمانسازی عبارتند از:
1. دوام و عمر مفید ساختمان:
اجر با کیفیت بالا میتواند در برابر عوامل مختلف جوی مانند باران، برف، باد و تغییرات دما مقاوم باشد. این باعث افزایش عمر مفید ساختمان میشود.
2. ایمنی و استحکام سازه:
کیفیت اجر مستقیماً بر استحکام و پایداری سازه تأثیر دارد. اجرهای نامرغوب ممکن است تحت فشار و وزن سازه ترک بخورند یا خرد شوند که این میتواند به تخریب سازه و خطرات جانی منجر شود.
3. عایق بندی حرارتی و صوتی:
اجر با کیفیت بالا معمولاً دارای ویژگیهای عایقبندی بهتری است که میتواند از نفوذ حرارت و صدا به داخل ساختمان جلوگیری کند. این امر منجر به بهبود بهرهوری انرژی و راحتی ساکنین میشود.
