What you need to know

Entertain the little ones with Jingle, our festive hand-puppet from Val Pierce.

Jingle is Father Christmas’ right-hand bear and is responsible for making fabulous toys for the big day. He always wears his favourite hat and the little bell rings whenever he moves. His head and paws are made from simple garter stitch shapes that are assembled at the end, while the main glove and collar are worked in stocking stitch for a smoother finish.
