Frankenstein Sweater for Pup

Frankenstein Sweater for Pup


I made this pattern because although the Frankenstein Cowl for Pup is adorable its not very warm, and where we are it gets cold on Halloween. When I was a kid we had to wear our snowsuits under our costumes it got so cold and snowy. So we all looked like the state puff marshmallow man trying to wear a costume lol. I even remember getting around on a sled! So for Pup I defiantly needed to make something warmer then the cowl so I used the same look but turned it into a sweater this time so pup can stay nice and warm all night long. 

This paid pattern can be found online at my Ravelry Store or Craftsy, hope you enjoy and happy hooking!
