Skill level and techniques
The advanced level reflects the construction: jacquard with fur yarn, increases and decreases, double crochets worked together, rows and turned rounds, common-base leaf lobes, a double shell and small-part assembly. The project suits crocheters who are already comfortable reading a pattern and working the main crochet stitches.
Reference dimensions
With the listed yarns and 1.75 mm hook, the hedgehog is approximately 10–11 cm long and the house approximately 15 cm high by 10 cm wide. Yarn, hook size and tension affect the finished dimensions.
