I didn't do a ton of Christmas knitting this year, but there were a few little ones that got knitted gifts. Including Zoe who got this puppet (Ravelry links to my project and to the pattern).
The eyes are made of buttons from my tin of random vintage buttons. The mane become quite voluminous after I washed and blocked the puppet. I think the giant mane and the long tongue will look wonderfully dramatic during puppet communications.
Jil Eaton released this Zany Puppetina pattern and I can't find any explanation of what creature it is intended to be. Which, I think, is very fitting for imaginative young ones. It can be whatever Zoe wants it to be! And, from what I have observed, Zoe has an imagination large enough to handle the task.
I didn't name him/her so that Zoe could have the honor. I am told this puppet's name is now "Poot."

Trinity, this puppet is so great and we enjoy him/her so much! Currently the name is Poot, but names around here for items of affection change on a daily (sometimes hourly, sometimes more!) basis, so I just want you to know that the next time you come over Poot may be something entirely different! :) We love it and so does Zoe and thank you so much!!! You are such a talented knitter and crafter and we are grateful that you choose to knit for our daughter so often. Have a great week!
