I patterned it all from scratch, too!

Sewn both by hand & machine. Has a velcro closure on the front of the neck! Also super light, so your head & neck won't hurt while wearing it (I'm very proud of that)! I lined the mouth with soft fleece and the inside of the head with satin. It's really comfortable!

It's not a mask, so you can't see out of it if you pull it over your face!! It's meant to be worn more like a hood.

If you have any questions about how it was made, feel free to ask!

Black fur is really difficult to photograph.. it looks better in-person!

Looks fantastic! Do you have something in mind for it? Or just a fun project?

Thank you so much!

I actually had this project hanging around since last year.. but since it's nearly Halloween, I figured this was the time to finish it.

This actually v2.0 of one that I had made last year, but I wasn't super satisfied with it, so this is the "new and improved" version.

I actually wanted to keep it for myself to wear for fall/winter weather, but I'm pretty strapped for cash right now, so I'm gonna try to sell it. Maybe I'll make a v3.0 for myself, one day!
