The Fairy Tale Puppet Collection
You can now find all four of my Fairy Tale Puppets here on EkayG! This collection is truly what sparked so many other ideas for creative play toys for little ones. I love toys that cultivate the imaginations of children, encouraging them to tell their own stories. Puppets that are easy for them to play with and simple for their little hands to navigate, make wonderful gifts for any occasion!
All of these fairy tale puppets were originally published on The Hook Nook Life blog, as a guest blogger. They can still be found there! You can also purchase the entire pattern set for only $6.50, in my Ravelry or Etsy shops. Thank you for your support!

Materials:
The fairy tale puppets are all made with worsted weight yarns. They were originally written with Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice, but that yarn has since been discontinued. Here are some good alternatives!
- Caron One Pound: it feels a little thicker in my hands, but is still a medium worsted weight yarn, and they have a great color selection!
- Red Heart with Love: again, feels a bit thicker than Vanna’s Choice, but softer than the Red Heart Super Saver, and offers a wide variety of colors!
- Any worsted weight yarn would work!
- Lion Brand Bonbons Celebrate or Party: for the unicorn horn and princess crown, if you don’t want to use an ordinary yellow worsted, but can’t find the Vanna’s Glamour, these sparkly yarns come with some great colors, including gold!
