Toby and Tilly: Adorable Knitted Hedgehogs – Perfect for All Ages!

Meet Toby and Tilly, two charming knitted hedgehogs that stand at an adorable 10 and a 1/2 inches high. These delightful creatures are sure to become favorites among children and adults alike, making them a fantastic gift option for birthdays or any special occasion!

This fun and engaging knitting project allows you to create Toby and Tilly flat, using DK or equivalent yarns. The easy-to-follow pattern means that everything is knitted on 3mm needles, with the fun fur accents crafted using 4mm needles. Whether you’re a seasoned knitter or a beginner, you’ll find that this pattern is clear and straightforward, with no complicated stitches or shaping techniques to worry about.
