Separate

.
I knitted up this cute little fellow as an entry for Nerd Wars on Ravelry. He was inspired by the mnemonic I learned in 9th grade that helps me spell "separate" correctly. My English teacher taught us this mnemonic phrase:

"Separate has 'a rat' in the middle."

I also remember the following helpful phrase...from the same class:

"All right is two words....just like all wrong."

The pattern I used is "Rat" from Lily Sugar 'n Cream. It's an easy knit...and a lot of fun. I was amazed at how many people find a knitted rat "cute"....but are disgusted by real ones....LOL!!!
