Make a Puppet

(Still Here!)

'Mitsy' the adorable wee character below, has been so popular I've decided to keep her on the front page for a little while longer. To find out how to make her just click on the pic or the title above.

She's one of the easiest puppets to make. Simple yet so dynamic. 'Mitsy' can sit, stand on her back legs and even walk down your arm. How do you make the legs? You don't! You'll find them inside your glove. Have you put your 'finger' on it yet?
