Christmas time is filled with inspiration for the imaginations of children, and The Nativity Story is the most powerful story you could bring to life for your little one!

Encourage that creativity and vizualization in your child, with puppets telling of the birth of Jesus! The Shepherd Hand Puppet represents the shepherds who were brought the good news of Jesus’ birth while watchingn over their flocks at night.

This pattern is made in one size, fitting children through adults, so that parents can play too! However, it can easily be adjusted by tightening your gauge or going down a hook size, if you’d like one to fit small children better.

Made in mostly single crochet, basic crochet knowledge is all that’s needed! Being familiar with croching in rnds is helpful, and some knowledge of hand sewing pieces together.
