Here she is, the Hedgehog of the hour......Frosty! Isn't she adorable?! This is the first Hedgehog I have made. I am thrilled at how she turned out. This is the very first knitted toy that I have made. I am hoping to knit a few more for gifts. Frosty will be staying put at our house. She is all mine!
Here are the details: The body was knit with New England Highland Wool. Colorway- Aster. The paws were knitted with a small amount of Cascade. For the back I used 2 different yarns held together. Bernat Disco colorway Roxy Rose and Knit One Crochet Too Jam Yarn Color 737. The Disco yarn has a fantastic iridescence to it. To me it has the look of real fur. After searching two different store for eyes and a nose I decided to needle felt the eyes and nose. It's not perfect but I still think she is cute.
Frosty enjoys peaches just us much as I do. She told me to get out the ladder and start picking.
Even Cassie likes Frosty. She was a little apprehensive at first.
Aah, how sweet!
Bear is not thrilled with the new addition. He wants to know if she has a squeaker. I better make sure that Frosty is put away when I'm not home. You know, that whole sibling rivalry thing. Giggle
Thanks for letting me be so goofy. It's the small things in life right? Have a fantastic day!

Fun pictures, fun post! Frosty turned out cute too.
Frosty is toooo cute. Be Careful! And I am totally envious of your peach tree myself! Huge Sigh!
I haven't seen a hedgehog knitted from this pattern that I didn't like. My favorite is the picture with Cassie (i think that's her name) . Awesome.
Oh, My! That is the cutest thing I've seen in a very long time! Frosty looks gorgeous in amongst the morning glories! I may need to queue her higher on the list...just too cute!
Sooo cute! I love the colours you picked...and the hairy part is perfect!
I needle felted the face on my too...I think it's cute..and baby safe if need be :-)
OMG!!!! Frosty is so cute! I never have knitted and am not sure if I could pull it off. No, wait a minute, I think I knitted (not crothched) a afghan once but it kept unraveling...the finishing step I never got. oh well. I do think Frosty is the cutest hedgehog I ever meet.
I think we should have picures of the traveling hedgehog. Send Frosty on a trip around the world. Remember the traveling gnome? Or at least a trip around town..LOL
Oh Frosty os just too cute! And I can see Bear just thinking about taking a taste too. You have to keep Frosty for yourself. he is your first.
Frosty is adorable! I love the pictures of Frosty 'posing'. I'm also coveting your Heavenly Blue Morning Glories!
Frosty is ridiculously cute; I LOVE your pics of her with all her 'friends'!
frosty is just too adorable, I have yet to do a Hedgehog, must look into this
She is great. I have GOT to learn how to knit...
I love Frosty! She is adorable and I especially like the photo of her on the back of Cassie; too cute.
Frosty, you are the most beautiful pink hedgehog I have ever seen.
Aww, Frosty is darling! I love how her feet are the same color as your morning glories. :)
