This is Rosie the hamster, one of the characters of the series of apps for kids Sago Mini.

It is worked in the round from the top down and has his details sewed on. The pattern has lots of step by step pictures to help you out :)

The gauge is not important as you can use any yarn and a suitable hook. Make sure the stitches are tight so stuffing does not show through.
If using the materials suggested in the pattern the finished doll measures 24 cm high including the ears.

The necessary materials are:
-Purple yarn, or any color you like
-Suitable hook for your yarn
-Tapestry needle
-Felt in black or security eyes or even buttons for the eyes
-Felt in lilac and pink for the nose and face and belly spots
-Fabric glue or sewing needle and matching thread

You can glue or sew on the felt details, although if you’re going to give it to a small child it’s advised to sew on any small details to avoid any risk of chocking.

Also I suggest using cotton or a durable material so it can be washed multiple times without affecting the doll.

I hope you have fun making this cutie and be sure to share your creation with me either here on Ravelry or by tagging me on social media!
