Sherlock is copyrighted by the BBC so the puppets can’t be sold (sorry)
You don’t have to make Sherlock into a puppet - you can leave the strings off and keep him as a soft toy if you would prefer.
Dk yarn is used for most of the toy, but the shirt is made with 4ply yarn.
In addition to this (and all regular equipment you need) you will need 5 small, white buttons, 1 black button, two barbecue skewers and some white sewing thread.
All of the equipment is listed in full at the start of the pattern.
