This bright finger puppet celebrates the many women who serve our communities as nurses. Each one is knitted by a fair trade knitter in Peru using organic cotton colored with safe, industrial dyes. Recommended for children ages 3 and up and the young at heart! Skin tone and details will vary. Price shown is for one puppet.

Puppet Gifts Invite Play

Whether chosen by grandparents, aunts, uncles or family friends, finger puppets make thoughtful little gifts that invite children to imagine, create and play. Their affordable size also makes them perfect for birthdays, stocking stuffers, party favors or simply choosing a few favorite animals to create a meaningful gift of their own.

Meet the Women Knitters

In the Andes of Peru, near the shores of Lake Titicaca, knitting is a tradition passed down through generations. Mothers have long knitted warm clothing and small toys for their children.

Today, women artisans hand-knit each tiny finger puppet using a traditional three-needle technique. Their exceptional craftsmanship provides flexible work they can do from home while caring for their families.

No two hands knit quite the same way. Each woman knitter brings her own skill, creativity, and personal touch, making every playful puppet unique while carrying forward a treasured knitting tradition.
