Kermit the Frog Replica Posted by Sunbeatle Puppets on Jul 31, 2010
Ok, so i've been interested in making my very own kermit for a while, and have found the head and mouth patterns: http://www.innisanimation.com/puppets/kermit.htm

But i have no clue where to start in terms of the neck, body, arms, and hands.
does anybody have patterns for those that they used?

Also if you have made a kermit replica, would you mind sharing materials, the process, just kind of everything about how you made him?
Thank you so much!

I made a frog like puppet using the PP glorified sock puppet pattern............ It is not a replica but a green frog.

FROG 1

I have read suggestions for the PP g. sock pattern, but i've seen it used and dont know if i like it. i think what i'll end up doing is using the head pattern, extending it for the neck, using the PP alternative body pattern for the body. the only thing i've had trouble figuring out is the arms

Why are the arms so hard?  They are nothing more then two pieces of fabric sewn together then turned and stuffed.  The same thing as on your avatar puppet.

i know i guess i'll just make up the arms well i guess im pretty much set by now, and dont expect to start on kermit anytime soon, but i was just very curious about him.
