Count Ratula - what can I say?? He’s a rat with a cape. He has a creepy look about him - perfect for that spooky vibe. Count Ratula is approximately 8.5 inches tall with a long twirly 6 inch tail. He’s 3.5 inches wide, and can stand on his own.

This pattern is intermediate - making the hands and some of the stitches are more of an intermediate level. There is a lot of sewing - you have to sew on the head, the arms, the ears, the tail, and two pieces each for the leg / feet area.

The cloak can be made as a single piece or double layered. You’ll want your yarn thickness for the cloak to match what you are using for the rat. A thinner yarn will make a smaller, shorter cloak.

Pattern is 21 pages long. Pages 1-13 include photos. Printer friendly version is on page 15 - 21, with 21 being an optional page to print with assembly instructions.
