Gloria Hedgehog

Gloria the Hedgehog is an adorable and cuddly hedgehog friend, beautifully dressed in a charming pink apron. This delightful toy is expertly knitted using a soft, fleecy bouclé yarn, making Gloria extra huggable. Designed by the talented Amanda Berry (@fluffandfuzz), this hedgehog pattern is crafted in DK yarns on single pointed needles, allowing for a traditional approach as it's not knitted in the round. The apron, which adds a lovely touch to this snuggly companion, is made with 4 ply yarn, and the apron straps are created using single crochet chains on a crochet hook. This versatile knitting pattern features intarsia colour-work for the hedgehog's tummy, adding a unique and colorful element to your finished piece. Ideal for confident beginners and intermediate knitters, this pattern incorporates essential knitting techniques such as casting on and off, knitting, purling, increasing and decreasing, and seaming to complete your cuddly creation. Whether you’re looking to enhance your knitting skills or create a perfect gift for a loved one, this Gloria the Hedgehog knitting pattern provides an enjoyable and satisfying project. Dive into the world of knitting with this charming hedgehog, and embrace the joy of crafting your very own cuddly companion!
