This pattern is for my knit teensy (1.5” nose to tip of tail) and extra small (6” nose to tip of tail) possums.

I adore possums. I always have, but picking up three babies while volunteer driving for a wildlife centre skyrocketed that love. I decided to make my own patterns and knit them. The internet went crazy. After over a year of tinkering and getting everything just right, my debut 10 page possum pattern is now live! While doing this I realized that this pattern can double for another animal that I love dearly- rats! This includes instructions to make both animals. Eventually there will be five more- I hope you enjoy this first one!
