These adorable little toys use a small amount of yarn and work up quickly. The body of each finger puppet is worked in the round on double point needles. The antennae and frog’s eyes are made using I- Cords. The wings for the Bumblebee and Butterfly are worked flat. The frog’s mouth is embroidered on and all the eyes are buttons.
