The most likely explanation is that something is irritating or hurting your hand while you are sleeping. Your subconscious mind can take the physical sensation and produce a dream around that feeling without ever waking you up, complete with very frightening and convincing causes to explain the pain. Symbolically, the rat might represent something that is hurting or irritating you in real life, such as someone who makes "biting" remarks about your "hand"-crafts.

You probably have been reading or studying about epidemics in the news media or throughout history. These interests would naturally appear in your dreams. Additionally, the rats represent your personal problems and then the plague represents the possibly disastrous consequences resulting if those problems remain unsolved.

The rats in the dream represent problems or issues that not only feel threatening but also nasty, filthy, and shameful. These issues could also cause more serious problems if they are not addressed directly with swift action.
