Ratties! The best pocket pet ever. If you are like me and know and love rats, you know what I mean. Sweet, affectionate and so smart. So I simply had to make a 3D one. And he is life size!

I like accuracy in plush animals and have made the markings and eyes like that of real rats.  Why use cross stitch?  Because cross stitch allows me to make tiny details that would be difficult to do by another method.   Who says that cross stitch is only good for flat things?  Now you can stitch a doll using cross stitch for the details.

The animal is stitched as 15 pieces which are then cut out and sewn together.  Full assembly directions with illustrations are included.

This pattern was hand designed by a professional artist/crafts person
Finished size is approximately 6.5" tall to top of his horns x 7" wide from nose tip to tail tip when worked on 14 count fabric.  The image is composed of 10 colors.
