Crochet Pattern "Hedgedog in Pumpkin"

Nosy is the little hedgedog while he looks out of the pumpkin that he choosed to stay in. The winter is over and the first sun shine let the little hedgedog look nosy around and be happy.

This decoration is from spring to thanksgiving and winter a good addition for your home. A real eyecatcher and a nice present for young and old.
