I realized I'd made a significant dent in the castle project, but now that it has been abandoned as a birthday project it slots into a Christmas deadline making it less of a finish now priority and putting it inline with a rotation of projects. I can only make one duck before needing a break to do something different and I'm at a stopping point waiting on supplies to wokr on another October birthday present. It seemed like a good time to think Halloween.
I've been on a bit of a puppet kick lately and while looking through my binder of Halloween projects I came across a free pattern from Red Heart for a set of 3 Halloween Hand puppets. You can find the pattern here .
Just a note these puppets are designed for little hands. I made mine with worsted weight yarn and a g hook and my fingers didn't fit completely into the finger holes. If your child has slightly larger hands you might want a bigger hook or you may wish to add some stitches to make the ghost wider. These are going to someone with little hands still so I don't think it will be an issue. I still have the bat and pumpkin to make to finish the set.
I am thinking with decreased outside holiday activities available having some fun indoor holiday themed play is more important than ever.
