This Sweet sad Rat Skelly is just waiting for your hook to bring it to life. Whether you're a fellow weirdo (hi!) or shopping for the perfect sad but cute gift, this piece is sure to make a statement.

This pattern is beginner-friendly with support! While the design involves some color changes, it now comes with a 19-page Tapestry Crochet Guide that includes:

How to Crochet for Absolute Beginners (video tutorial)
How to Color Change & Manage the Yarn Chaos (video tutorial)
Step-by-step color blocking instructions
Image chart + row-by-row guide
Photo references and tips throughout
Multiple finishing options included (border, tassels, pillow, wall hanging, etc.)

Finished size: approx. 16 × 16 inches (not including tassels or borders) — will vary depending on tension, yarn, and hook.

Materials you'll need:

  • Worsted weight acrylic or cotton yarn (I used Caron One Pound - Black, White, Succulent, Claret and Medium Gray Mix)

  • 4mm crochet hook (i usually size smaller than my yarn recommends to get tighter stitches but that is optional)

  • Wooden dowel rod

  • Scissors

  • Yarn needle

  • Steamer or iron with steam function

You can sell what you make! Small batch sellers are welcome — just don’t resell or share the pattern file. Please credit @crochet.or.cry when posting or listing online.

Thank you SO much for your support — I hope you have the best time making this. Feel free to reach out if you need help along the way!
