It's difficult to make any reptile puppet  and not have it look like Kermit the frog.

These are based on a character from my husband's book series Headgames Book Series by Robert David Strawn,

I have made about one dozen versions of these. I would normally have ripped them out when I did not care for the results, by DH Bob wanted to keep them all. Lots and lots of yarns were killed during the evolution of this design.
