Description from designer’s website:

Now, think new babies, toddler’s birthdays, Christenings, keepsakes and congratulations. The Baby Girl and Boy Hedgehogs are the most perfect presents. They are so cute and cuddly you will have to knit one (or two) for yourself. Both sweet Hedgehogs are made from the same pattern with a choice of two different accessories – a very realistic soother and a baby rattle. In addition, the baby’s initial or age can be embroidered on the little bibs. Who could resist?
