I was wondering if any one would happen to know how to successfully build a Kermit puppet. what materials might be used
and is there a simple pattern for making his head and body. if any one has had success in building a kermit like puppet or a recreation of one I would love to see pics of it, and any info on how to go about building my own kermit puppet. Any information about it would be very very helpful. Thanks

kermit puppet

Hi there, I have a pic of a custom made kermit puppet made by Ben and Keeter puppets. They just finished it. I can email it to you if you want to see it, just let me know. I am currently planning out my plans to make a kermit also. Let me know how it goes for you.
