Four Dino Patterns: Knit Up These Terrific Triceratops!

Posted by Danielle | Mar 13, 2010 | Knit Hacks, Pets | 0 |

Triceratops had one of the largest skulls of any land animal that ever lived! Their skulls could grow up to 8 feet (2.4 meters) long—about one-third of their entire body length. These massive heads featured the iconic three horns and large bony frill that make Triceratops so recognizable, but they weren’t just for show. The skull structure provided protection against predators like Tyrannosaurus rex and may have been used for display during mating rituals.
