Washcloth Puppets #3

Welcome to our delightful collection of easy knit puppet designs featuring charming characters: a duck, bluebird, whale, and horse! These engaging patterns are perfect for both beginner and experienced knitters. Each body pattern is provided in two styles: garter stitch for a textured look and stockinette stitch for a smoother finish.

These adorable puppets double as washcloths, ensuring that when worn, the puppet's face is positioned on the back of the hand, allowing for a fun and interactive playtime without the worry of buttons rubbing against little hands. For safety, especially with young children, consider sewing felt circles instead of traditional button eyes, eliminating any potential choking hazards.

After use, simply rinse the puppets in clean water. Remember to squeeze out excess water and allow them to air dry completely. If you notice any wear or loose parts, it’s best to discard the puppet to maintain safety standards. Please note that this product is designed for use under adult supervision. Due to the presence of small parts, these puppets may not be suitable for unattended young children. Ensure that all embellishments are securely attached before letting the kids enjoy their creations.

This knitting pattern is generously sized, tailored to fit most children, and with the use of elastic-cotton yarns, it also comfortably fits most adult hands. Whether you’re looking to make a thoughtful gift or create a fun family activity, these puppet patterns will provide endless enjoyment!

For those using Fixation and Espirit yarns, remember to double strand and utilize size 9 needles for optimal results. If you prefer using Butterfly Cotton, which does not contain elastic, simply cast on 4 additional stitches with size 6 needles for the perfect fit.
