Francis the Hedgehog
Hedgehogs are one of Kerry Lord’s favourite animals, so it’s only right that Francis the Hedgehog has been a much loved member of the menagerie for more than ten years and was part of the original crochet book. These spiky characters weigh roughly as much as a pineapple and are covered with up to 7000 spines. This crochet pattern is one of our favourites as it sits around the same size as its real life cousin, although in this case your crochet hedgehog will be much less spiky and much more cuddly!
This soft toy will look at home in the nursery, sitting on the shelf or lovingly gift-wrapped for the loved ones in your life. Once you’ve finished crocheting Francis the Hedgehog, you’ll be ready to start the next animal in the collection with this addictive new hobby!
TOFT’s Edward’s Menagerie collection is a series of crochet amigurumi toys designed by Kerry Lord. This crochet animal kit contains TOFT’s quality pure wool yarn and an easy-to-follow downloadable pattern. There are video links for all the crochet stitches and techniques used in the pattern to get you started and help you complete your toy. Share your progress with the TOFT community on Instagram @toft_uk using the #edsanimals hashtag.
