This is a downloadable PDF knitting pattern
Inspired by Beatrix Potter's Mrs. Tiggy Winkle Harriet the Hedgehog will keep you nice and warm on your midnight adventures. The main head is knitted in stocking stitch starting with ear flaps, we work in intarsia to create the shape of her face working up decreasing to shape the crown. The features are knitted separately, sewn together then attached to the head. The snout is stuffed with toy stuffing which together with Harriet's eyes and nose create a fantastic 3D effect. We have used two different yarns and the Lark's Head knot to create Harriet's mane of prickles.
