Sleepy Ferret Hammock :: Free Sewing Pattern!
Ferrets are cute and cuddly, mischievous, and above all else: sleepers! They sleep for about 16 hours a day and are only awake for 8 hours – and that’s when they are young.

They will curl up just about anywhere, but hammocks are great because they keep the light out, are soft, warm, and good for snuggling in.
