In this craft, we guide you in making your very own dragon puppet for dragon play and puppet shows. This classic finger-knitted and wool felt dragon will ignite imaginations to breathe fire and roar it's magic. Gather Your Materials: Wool felt sheets Wool roving Matching chunky wool yarn Needle and thread Wooden dowels Scissors Hot glue gun Make Your Dragon Come To Life: Step 1: Start by drafting a quick pattern for your dragon's head and tail. Get creative but keep the details large so they can be cut out. Once you've got your drawing just right, use this pattern to cut out 2 dragon heads and 2 tails. Set them aside. Step 2: Use your chunky wool yarn to 3-finger-knit a 5-6 inch length of cord. If you need help with this step you can find easy tutorials on You-Tube. Finger knitting is great for developing fine motor skills to create all sorts of art projects. Step 3: Place your two dragon heads on top of each other and use a blanket stitch to sew around all sides, leaving the bottom open. Repeat the same steps with your dragon tail. Fill each half with wool roving to bring it to life! Step 4: Use hot glue to attach each end of your finger knit cord to your wooden dowels. Add another bit of hot glue on the inside of your dragon head and tail to attach your wooden dowels to each end. Step 5: Finish your project by sewing up the end of each dragon part, closing it fully. Now your dragon is ready for storytelling, imaginary play and fanciful dragon dance parties! We hope your fall is filled with engaging fun and heaps of family laughter and love, and a few crafternoons spent together.
