When performing without a partner, you might find it works well to pin or velcro the free arm to the body of your puppet. Or if it's wearing a jacket, slide the free and into the pocket.

This type of thing is often done on puppets with rod arm controls, too, when the performer doesn't want to, or cannot manipulate both arm rods in a scene for some reason.

Good luck with your new puppet.
