Our Hippo Puppet Sewing Pattern is the pattern of the month! The hippo is the largest land animal after the elephant and white rhino. Its closest relatives are the whales and porpoises. Even though they are related to aquatic mammals, they can’t swim or float! They stand and walk on sandbanks underneath the water.
In our previous blog article we listed a few links to craft projects featuring sloths that we found around the web. We also had a free download of sloth paper bag puppet pattern.
