I’m completely smitten with hedgehogs, especially this time of year when you spot them pottering around gardens getting ready to nest for winter! I wanted to give them a little tribute with this round design — spiky on the back, soft and cozy on the belly.

Since the grid is a bit wider than it is tall, grab a rectangular pegboard (or two square ones clipped together). Each square is one bead: start with the pointy little snout, then work your way up to the back, alternating shades for that spiky texture.

When ironing, pay close attention to the tiny feet poking out at the bottom — they’re thin, so press them well so they don’t come loose. Whether propped on a shelf or turned into a keychain, this little hedgehog will find its spot in no time!
