Can someone tell me what "6cm" translates to in mm or inches? Sue Dewsbury recommends adding 6cm to the bottom of the hand puppets. I have left them longer but don't know how much longer to make them. Thank you.

1cm=10mm 6cm=60mm, or 2,4 inches.

6cms is just under 2 1/2 inches. Hope this helps.

About 2 1/2 inches. I haven't looked at the pattern/design. Would that make sense to be that length?

I see you have your answer but for future reference there are close to 2.5 cm in an inch.

Thank you everyone. I have left the puppets plenty long, so I can now trim them up.
Thanks again.

I see you already have your answer, but thanks for asking it! It was one question on this site that I could answer!

Most tape measures have inches on one side and metric on the other, at least my 10 or so do... This might help in future.

I have the website which link is given by jofrog on my favourite toolbar that coverts inches in cm and cm into inches. I use it very often and it is so easy to have it there!
