12 Free Knit and Crochet Puppet Patterns

Many kids love to perform and put on a show. It’s a way they can make up their own story and share it with friends and family. Expand their imagination and encourage their creativity. Why not have them make their own puppets for puppet shows? Take your pick from this collection of knit and crochet puppet patterns below.

While some puppets are made for hands, others are just for fingers. Kids can use puppets just for playtime in the playroom. But also scrubby puppets can perform shows in the bathtub. Mittens and scarf puppets can bring their show on the road.
