When Emma Friedlander-Collins was a new convert to crochet and a mother of two small superheroes, she was frustrated by the lack of patterns available for children's costumes, so she decided to start designing her own. This collection is the result, featuring 35+ garments and accessories that make up 15 different costumes. All the dressing-up favorites are here, from pirates, mermaids, superheroes, and Vikings to fairytale characters such as Rapunzel and Red Riding Hood. There are even some furry friends--just look at the cute cat and floppy-eared bunny outfits! All of the items are suitable for various ages and sizes, require no complicated sewing or finishing, and will cost you a fraction of the price of store-bought outfits. Plus, they're quick to whip up, making them great for last-minute panics over forgotten party invitations.
