hand puppet St Francis knitting pattern

The life of St. Francis always impressed me, so it was no coincidence that some knitted birds found their
way into my room the moment I finished the monk. My St. Francis is a knitted puppet you can play with, for example for telling children the wonderful story of his preaching to the birds. And when you stop playing him, there is an inlay for his body which enables him to sit upright to watch over your family!

The pattern will lead you step-by-step through the making process, including loads of detail photos. Additionally, you’ll find instructions for the more elaborate techniques used. PLEASE MIND: St. Francis is knitted in the ROUND, there is no instruction for flat knitting!

I wish you happy knitting
Yours Steffi
