I recently gave a good friend and co-worker a darling set of finger puppets (a.k.a. puppers) in a Nantasket Basket. They were a breeze to knit up and a huge hit. Next time, I'll knit them in the round, even though the pattern is written to seam. Yuck. Didn't enjoy that part so much. Cute as a button!
My set included fuzzy bunny, stripey tiger, pink pig with corkscrew tail,elephant with a great trunk, and a friendly bear. I put them in a blue and white bag, tossed it all in a red Nantasket Basket, and put it all in a white bag from the LYS.
If I had knit the blue and white bag, it would have been all knitting, all the time!
those are great! i'm sure they'll be loved!

Hey, I'm so happy to hear from you again! That is the cutest idea! I keep wanting to do one of those baskets but didn't know what I'd do with one when it was done, you know? Very cute puppets.
