Very popular among 1 year olds and up to school age!

NO potential dangerous materials for little children are required.

NOTICE! This is a PATTERN of the finger puppet and not the actual finished product.

The pattern is suitable for intermediate crocheters.

  • Supported by many pictures
  • Consists only of normal stitches (magic ring, chain stitch, single crochet, double crochet, half double crochet, decrease, increase, slip stitch).
  • For a nice finish, it requires good skills to 1) sew little pieces together and 2) embroider.
  • Beginners might find the yarn and hook quite small

Materials:

  • Cotton yarn for 1,5mm hook. For best result it is worth it to use cotton 8/4 split in two. It is also possible to use embroidery floss. This will make the puppets a little bit bigger.
  • Polyester stuffing
  • Crochet hook size 1,5mm
  • Sewing needle
  • Pin needles
  • Scissors
