Creating fuzzy hedgehog quills
With dark brown fuzzy yarn and 2.5mm hook, surface crochet with sc onto the dark brown part of the body. Using fuzzy yarn means it’s okay to make a mistake since it won’t be immediately visible.
Crochet around as you normally would in a spiral fashion and ensure you cover the entire back with fuzz.
Assembly
Cut two pieces of white felt into small crescents to match the size of the black brads.
Glue the brads and white felt in place as the eyes.
Insert the doll’s eyes (used as a nose here) into the snout piece and sew the snout in place.
Sew on the lips.
Sew on the arms, feet, and ears.
Use dark brown yarn to make eyebrows with the backstitch technique.
Glue a small yellow felt circle onto the center of the flower.
Use dark brown eyes shadow to give the eyes some depth and dimension. Apply with the help of a cotton bud.
Dab on some pink blush on the cheeks and the small center of the lips.
While you fill the body with stuffing, start shaping the doll as you would a triangle onigiri (rice ball).
