Grab your hook, colorful yarn, and let’s turn your fingers into superheroes! 🦸‍♂️🧶💪

Materials:

• Yarn colors: Beige, black, red, yellow, green, blue, brown *(I used medium-weight yarn, 24–30 sts = 10 cm / 4 inches)*
• 3 mm crochet hook
• Foam sheets (EVA foam) in white and yellow (1 mm thick)
• Black beads (4 mm recommended)
• Hot glue gun

Why foam sheets?

I used them for the heroes’ logos. Cut shapes from the foam:

• White circle for Flash and Green Lantern
• Yellow oval for Batman, etc.
  Then, paint the symbols with acrylics (avoid washable markers—they smudge!). Once dry, glue them to the puppets with the hot glue gun.

⚠️ No foam? Get creative! Use felt, fabric, or embroidery instead. 🎨🧤
