🧶 Aussie Animal Finger Puppets Vol 7 — 12 knitted outback puppet patterns (PDF download, 36 pages)
Twelve Aussie outback creatures to knit as finger puppets — the cast of Australia's red centre, from a sandy-gold dingo to a spiky little thorny devil. Every puppet in this pack is shaped its own way: the frilled-neck wears a proper ruffled frill, the blue-tongue's tongue is knitted wide and blue, the thorny devil is a dome of tiny knitted spikes, and the woma python is one long banded tube with no separate head at all. No two makes feel the same, and every face is embroidery — no safety eyes, no small parts.
WHAT'S INSIDE
• 12 original finger puppet patterns: Dingo, Numbat, Spotted Quoll, Sand Goanna, Frilled-neck Lizard, Blue-tongue Lizard, Thorny Devil, Woma Python, Camel, Wedge-tailed Eagle, Australian Bustard and Hopping Mouse
• A dedicated photo page for every puppet
• A pattern-at-a-glance box for each pattern (skill level, finished size, yarn, needles)
• Full row-by-row instructions with the stitch count on every row
• Step-by-step assembly notes and a story-time tip for every character
YOU WILL NEED
• DK weight (8-ply) yarn in outback colours — about 10–15 g of the main colour per puppet
• 3.25 mm (US 3) double-pointed needles (or a circular needle for magic loop)
• A little polyester fiberfill, embroidery thread for faces, a tapestry needle, stitch markers and scissors
SKILL LEVEL
Confident beginner. If you can knit in the round and increase and decrease, you can make every puppet in this pack — each one takes an evening at most. Grandparents knit a set for story time; teachers keep a whole cast in a pencil case. These are the creatures of Australia's wide red outback — the animals Aussie kids look for on long drives through the heart of Australia, past spinifex, red dirt and wedge-tailed eagles riding the thermals.
