Halloween 2014

Halloween 2014 Peg + Cat

This is a DIY costume. 

Not wanting to sew everything from scratch I started with a cat costume from eBay and some iPoly dye 

Instead of using the iPoly dye on the stove as directed I boiled a pasta pot full of water and used that to fill one of my husbands 5 gallon work buckets (outside), I covered it with a piece of cardboard to keep the temperature up and went out to stir occasionally. 

For the yarn wig I bought two variations of yellow, I made a large circle with the yarn, that when halved was about the length of my fart and went down alternating coloring making slipknots to create a wig, I made it a little long so that I could trim it to my desired length. 

The pants I made by bleaching some old leggings and them placing elastic bands down the length of each leg prior to dying my desired color. 

I sewed this jacket, but I would highly recommend just trying to find one you can dye.
