Elliedactyl Patterns – Reid Hoodie & Zane Joggers

This week Nico is bringing you his brand new Disney inspired doggie outfit:

Both of these patterns are from Elliedactyl Patterns. The top is the Reid Hoodie and the bottoms are the Zane Joggers. This is my first time with Elliedacytl.

Let’s start with the top. There are literally 101 different combinations of how you can make this shirt/hoodie. I had to draw out a sketch just to keep track of what I was doing. So with that said, this isn’t a pattern for a beginner – it was a thinker for me for sure! The pattern states that it is true to ready-to-wear sizing and I would say that seems right. I think the pattern is supposed to be slim fit, which it really is.

The bottoms are also very versatile. I went with a 3t on the bottom but according to the waist I should have sized down. The size 3t fits well on the waist but the legs are super tight. Next time I would made just that part wider by at least 1/2″.

I’ve since given the pants to Nico’s best friend because they are more like leggings and he didn’t like them. This way they can match!

Overall, I’m a fan of the top but not 100% sold on the bottoms. I had a friend warn be that they fit weird but I didn’t listen. Sorry Shawna, next time I swear I’ll listen 😀

I have a few outtakes from this session – he cracks me up!!
