Ok, fine. I'll keep my stock of Anne quotes to myself.
I should probably start this costume explaination off by saying that I was hard pressed to get Ezra excited about being Kristoff. He really wanted to be Hans.
"But Hans is the bad guy."
"Ya, I wanna be the bad guy."
We had that conversation at least 800 times. But I won in the end because we watched Frozen and I showed Ezra that Kristoff really is cool because he cuts ice for a living and he has a reindeer..... {?} Or I won because I pulled the mom card...something like that.
This costume was a little trickster. Sewing strips of fur is my least favorite thing to do. Officially. Also sewing with sparkly tulle. And cleaning toilets. But let's move on. In the end, I really thought Ezra looked pretty cute in his Kristoff get-up. Even though I made the neck too wide and so the collar kept flopping down. {Let's not focus on that. or the fact that this next picture has no focus. His face was just so cute.}
Peek-a-boo patterns has a pattern for Kristoff, but I wanted to add sleeves.
I used a shirt that fit him and just kid of winged it. The entire thing is lined, so no exposed furry seams. I lined the bottom of the collar and the front with fushia and purple knit with a zig zag stitch because that seemed Kristoffy {read: easier to zig zag with knit} It was the day before Halloween and I really didn't wanna go trim hunting, so I just used the fushia color and tied it around his cute little waist. He wasn't crazy about the costume that night, but he owned it the next day. I wish I'd thought to get some rope as a prop, but pshhh. Who needs rope when you're trick or treating?
The hat I threw together right before we walked out the door. It was a little tight, but I used an existing hat and just rolled with it. He wore black sweat pants and a black turtle neck underneath. Nice and cozy. I only got a few normal pictures of that boy and he was gone. So that's all I've got.
Not sure of this explanation was very helpful, but oh well. You get to see a cute little Kristoff anyway. :)
{PS. All fabric is knit or fleece from my stash.}
