This little piggy is so sweet and super simple to make. I wondered if I could use an eyelash type yarn for its body and change it into a soft little hedgehog. Has anyone experimented with this pattern? I especially like the pig with wings and think it would make a cute mobile to hang over a crib.

Thank you so much for this adorable pattern. My son in law has a collection of pigs and every year I send him something different for Christmas for his collection. Well, this year I didn't find anything, but when I saw this pattern I knitted this up and sent it as a late Christmas gift. I took different size needles and knitted a family. This is really an adorable pattern. I also made one for a friend that has a doll house size farm.
