A4 PDF: materials, every round with a tick box, assembly and face

A crochet amigurumi inspired by Sonic from Sonic the Hedgehog: a blue hedgehog with swept-back quills, green eyes, white gloves and red sneakers. About 10 cm tall in DK yarn with a 2.5 mm hook. A free pattern with every round counted, a 3D model to turn around and a printable PDF. Unofficial fan-made design, not affiliated with or endorsed by Sega.

How to crochet the Speedy Blue Hedgehog

Beginner-friendly · 10 cm tall · about 2 h · DK yarn · 2.5 mm hook

  1. Crochet the 10 pieces in rounds: Body, Ear ×2, Quill ×3, Gloved arm ×2, Sneaker ×2 (61 rounds in all).
  2. Stuff and put it together in 7 steps; each one lights up where it goes on the 3D model.
  3. Add the face: safety eyes by round and stitch, or embroider them for a child under 3.

Every round with its stitch count is in the Pattern tab below, and in the free printable PDF.

What you'll need

Tick things off as you gather them.

0 of 9 gathered

Gauge

1 sc ≈ 4 mm wide, 1 round ≈ 3.6 mm tall (10 cm ≈ 25 sc × 28 rounds); yarn about 1.9 mm thick. The gauge sets the size of the toy; crochet tightly so the stuffing does not show.

Worked in

Continuous spiral rounds. Don't join. Move a stitch marker up every round.

0 of 55 rounds done

  1. Size before assembly: about 7.7 cm at the widest, 8.7 cm long; 31 rounds. Multi-colour rounds are listed stitch by stitch from the round-start marker; keep the round start on the piece's centre front line (as it sits on the finished toy). The order is for right-handed crocheting (right to left on the outside); left-handed: reverse it.
  2. Change to blue (pull it through on the last yarn-over of R11).
  3. Change to blue (pull it through on the last yarn-over of R22).
  4. → Insert the safety eyes now (positions: see “Face”) and fix the backs. Start stuffing (firmly) and keep adding as you decrease.
  5. Top up the stuffing if needed. Fasten off leaving a 15 cm tail; with the needle weave it through the front loops of all 6 stitches of the last round, pull tight and hide the end inside.

  1. Size before assembly: about 2.9 cm at the widest, 1.7 cm long; 6 rounds. Multi-colour rounds are listed stitch by stitch from the round-start marker; keep the round start on the piece's centre front line (as it sits on the finished toy). The order is for right-handed crocheting (right to left on the outside); left-handed: reverse it.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff. Shape it into a spoon: push the front wall into the back wall (not down to a thin plate) — a concave spoon about 3.3 mm deep in front, a rounded back, and rounded folds of two layers at the sides (about 5.7 mm thick); about 29 mm wide. Keep the opening a curve, hollow side forward, not a straight line.<!-- (spoon 55 %) -->

  1. Of these: top — 1; low — 1; mid — 1. Size before assembly: about 3.2 cm at the widest, 4.2 cm long; 12 rounds.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff firmly just before sewing it on; a little less near the edge, then add a pinch when the seam is nearly done.

  1. Size before assembly: about 1.2 cm at the widest, 1.7 cm long; 5 rounds.
  2. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff lightly just before sewing it on; a little less near the edge, then add a pinch when the seam is nearly done.

  1. Size before assembly: about 2 cm at the widest, 2.2 cm long; 7 rounds.
  2. Change to white (pull it through on the last yarn-over of R3).
  3. Change to red (pull it through on the last yarn-over of R4).
  4. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff lightly, then press the piece slightly flat (oval cross-section; flattened 40 %).

    1. Body is the base; its magic ring is at the bottom.
    1. Ear → body (make 2). Centre: in round 28, 3 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left (the one on the toy's left is described; sew the other as its mirror image). Sew around the opening (16 st); the seam covers rounds 24–30 of the body, about 5 st wide. Keep the spoon hollow side forward; the opening lies in a curve following the body, both layers sewn down. It points up and slightly outward.
    1. Quill (top) → body. Centre: in round 26, on the centre back line. Sew around the opening (24 st); the seam covers rounds 21–29 of the body, about 9 st wide. It points backward and slightly up.
    1. Quill (low) → body. Centre: between rounds 15 and 16, on the centre back line. Sew around the opening (24 st); the seam covers rounds 11–19 of the body, about 8 st wide. It points backward and slightly down.
    1. Gloved arm → body (make 2). Centre: between rounds 12 and 13, 8 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left (the one on the toy's left is described; sew the other as its mirror image). Flatten the opening (4 st against 4 st) and sew it on in a straight line top to bottom (along the body), across the rounds: rounds 11–14 of the body, about 1 st wide. It points forward and slightly down.
    1. Sneaker → body (make 2). Centre: in round 3, 1.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left (the one on the toy's left is described; sew the other as its mirror image). Sew around the opening (12 st); the seam covers rounds 2–4 of the body, about 4 st wide. It points forward and slightly down.
    1. Quill (mid) → body. Centre: in round 21, on the centre back line. Sew around the opening (24 st); the seam covers rounds 17–25 of the body, about 8 st wide. It points backward.

    Safety eyes and noses go in before the piece is stuffed and closed (see the pieces above); embroidery is easier before the piece is sewn on.

    • Felt (white), 2 ovals 17×21 mm (on the body) (symmetric: the toy's left side is described, the right is its mirror image), glue or sew on: between rounds 22 and 23, 1.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left .
    • Safety eyes with a printed glint 12 mm (on the body): between rounds 22 and 23, 4 st apart (count along round 22: about 2.1 st each side of the centre front line). Iris #3aa84a.
    • Satin stitch (on the body): in black thread, a oval about 7 mm wide and 5 mm tall, horizontal stitches; centred in round 20, on the centre front line .
    • Embroidery in mouth thread (on the body), straight stitches through: (between rounds 17 and 18, 2 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's right ) → (in round 17, 1.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's right ) → (between rounds 16 and 17, 0.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's right ) → (between rounds 16 and 17, 0.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left ) → (in round 17, 1.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left ) → (in round 18, 2 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left ) → (between rounds 18 and 19, 2 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left ).
