Gruffalo whats a gruffalo?

The Gruffalo 

(Written by Julia Donaldson)

He has terrible tusks,

and terrible toes, 

and terrible teeth in his terrible jaws

He has nobbly knees

and turn-out toes

and a poisonous wart at the end of this nose

 His eyes are orange, 

his tongue is black,

he has purple prickles all over his back

 I made the large Gruffalo following a Phoeny pattern,then I decided I needed to make the other characters in the book, so I've designed them to be finger puppets.

I am currently getting the patterns tested, (ooh listen to me lol) then I shall be offering my woodland friends patterns for sale.

Of course if you can't knit and would like a completed set, then let me know. £25 inc postage.

The little Gruffalo could be used as the gruffalo child.

I also intend to make a storybag for them all to be tidied away in, this will also be included in the price.
Buy them the book for Christmas , imagine the fun you will have: sharing the story and acting it out with these delightful finger puppets.
