Are you thinking about making your pup’s costume this year but aren’t sure what you want him to be? Or maybe you know (zombie, hot dog, ladybug??), but aren’t sure how to make it.
We’ve got you covered! Here are our topic pics for Dog Halloween Costume Patterns so you can get ready in plenty of time for HOWLween. Most of these patterns can probably be found at your local fabric store. Some are free online!
#1 – Steampunk Pups
These are awesome! Your dog can match you in your steampunk duds this Halloween with these fun costumes from Simplicity. As a sewer, I find the Simplicity patterns to be easy to figure out. Though check the sizing before you cut, sometimes they run small/large. Simplicity.com
