Kids Yoda Costume

I mentioned last month that I was hoping to make a Yoda costume for my daughter Pearl, and yay, I finished it! I wrote it up as a tutorial for CRAFT: as part of their big Halloween round-up.

This is a super easy project to do if you sew — I finished it within a week. My favorite parts to make were the hat (I used Heather Mann‘s tutorial and actually made a little set of three in different sizes),

and the snake.

Please let me know if you make a Yoda costume too, I’d love to see it!

Wow – check out these great crocheted monster eyes slippers! I love them – too bad my wife can’t make me some (she lacks the skillz).
