Ok ... I know there will be people out there saying “why?” to themselves and possibly a bit creeped out by this, all I can say is – why not?!?! Who doesn’t want a cuddly knitted dissected rat hanging on their wall? :) My husband found a picture of this on net and dared me to knit it, so I did (after buying the pattern from the fabulous Crafty Hedgehog Etsy shop). We both work in science (nothing to do with rats or any other mammals) so he has promised to hang it in his office at work – what a laugh. Crazy old scientist. :)
