Puppy in Monster Costume Needle Felting Kit by Wizardi F07N8-W7

This puppy figure felts up with a tan face inside a teal hood, the hood's two round ear-like nubs each marked with a small eye design and topped with a single yellow spike, giving the whole hood the look of a friendly, one-eyed monster character rather than a scary Halloween costume. A white muzzle, pink cheek blushes, dark bead eyes, and small white forehead spots sit below, with the puppy's arms raised open in a cheerful pose and a matching teal monster-face pouch carried on a strap across its chest. Note: the source listing describes this as a Halloween-style, slightly spooky monster costume, but the teal coloring, single yellow horn, and cheerful open-armed pose in the image read as playful and cute rather than spooky.

Why this kit: the teal monster hood and matching pouch give this puppy a novelty costume design distinct from the rest of the puppy-in-costume line; the single-horn, single-eye detailing reads as whimsical rather than frightening, widening its appeal beyond seasonal Halloween shoppers; the open-armed pose adds more personality and visual interest than a plain seated figure.

Kit includes: pre-colored wool roving, one or more felting needles, a foam mat, and illustrated step-by-step instructions. No sewing or knitting experience required. Dimensions: 6.5 x 4.5 x 4.5 cm / 2.95 x 1.77 x 1.77 in.

Small tufts of wool roving are layered and repeatedly poked with a barbed felting needle, which tangles the fibers together and gradually compacts and shapes them into the puppy's body, hood, and monster pouch, worked section by section following the included instructions.

A playful project for dog lovers who enjoy a novelty costume figure, this puppy-in-monster-costume kit makes a fun handmade gift or collectible for any time of year.
