Columns along the spine

Please note:The spines are knitted from the wrong side of the upper part. They are knitted vertically along the ladder of chains of air loops. With a thread, mark the center line, counting the eighth chain from ch from the right or left edge of the 18th row. Follow up from row to row in chains of stitches to the middle line.

The central line is knitted as follows: crochet 3.75 cm and red yarn from the central chain from the 1st ch 18 rows, * 3 ch, 1 fluffy st. in the same chain of 1 ch, 1 connection. behind the back wall of a chain of 1 ch row above, 2 ch, 1 connection. Art. in a chain of 1 in the row above, repeat from * to the end of the column. Knit 10 columns.
Close the last loop, crochet gently turn the lush columns on the front side of the upper part.

Please note:The uneven effect is created by alternating the order of lush columns through one column. The second version of the column is knitted as follows: crochet 3.75 mm, attach yellow yarn to the column on each side of the middle, * 2 ch, 1 conn.st. in a chain of 1 ch next above, 3 ch, 1 lush column in the same chain of 1 ch, 1 connection. Art. behind the back wall of the chain of 1 ch in the row above, repeat from * to the end of the column. 8 columns, bind off the last loop, crochet carefully turn the fluffy columns on the front side of the upper part.

Continue knitting, alternating the first and second knitting option until you get 17 columns.

Product assembly

Fold the front sides of the upper and lower parts together, starting from the nose with a 3.75 mm crochet white yarn to connect them. Art., leaving a hole for stuffing. Unscrew and insert eyes. Stuff and sew up the hole. Embroider the tip of the nose with blue yarn, make stitches on top of each other to get a bulge.

For accuracy, stuff Mr. Sopelkick, and then slowly turn the lush columns on the front side with a crochet hook.

Supplies:
4mm crochet hook, 4/Medium weight yarn in Main Fur Color, light brown, and white. 8mm safety eyes for big hedgehog, 6mm safety eyes nor the nose, and baby hedgehog, tapestry needle, scissors, and stuffing.

Additional Information:
Difficulty: Easy
This pattern refers to “Main Color”. This is the main color you will use for your hedgehog. I used a furry color in pink for my main color. We start by making the head, which then works into the body. The head and body are one piece. We then make the muzzle, ears, arms & legs. Then we are done with the big hedgehog! Last, we make the baby hedgehog. Done!

Note about yarn: This pattern uses Red Heart’s Hygge Fur yarn. Since crocheting with fuzzy yarn can be really hard, I pair it with a regular 4 weight yarn in a similar color. If you crochet with the strands of fuzzy yarn and regular yarn together, it will be much easier to see your stitches. Please remember that this pattern is designed for fuzzy yarn. So if you make this pattern with regular yarn it may come out pretty different. The fuzzy yarn requires less shaping in the pattern, so if you use regular yarn your hedgehog may come out looking more blobby and smaller.

Another note: If you have your hedgehog facing wrong side out, he will be much fuzzier. I have my big hedgehogs facing wrong side out.
