Q: Will this include the pattern for the actual vest?
A: You must purchase the Pathfinder Vest pattern separately, as these animal add-ons do NOT contain all the pattern pieces for the vest.
Q: Can I use the same animal add-on for all the garments patterns I have?
A: As the necklines are different between the garments, you will need to purchase the add-on specifically for the garment type you are sewing.
Q: Is there an add-on for the Adult Pathfinder Vests?
A: Lucky you, the Adult Animal add-on includes both the Men's/Straight Fit AND Women's Curved Fit size ranges in the one add-on - bonus!
SUPPLIES
Use the fabric requirement chart from your original garment pattern.
The Animal hood has the same fabric requirements as the Round hood. If adding a tail, allow another 1⁄4 yard or metre.
It is intended that your choice of ears can be cut from the scraps - however, if making a Bunny, Puppy or Giraffe, you may need to allow a tiny bit more fabric.
