This hoodie is my favorite pattern from Pattern for Pirates. I have used the Jolly Roger Raglan pattern to make a ton of different shirts and hoodies. I can't even tell you how many cute shirts my kids have in their closets made from this pattern. The instructions are easy to follow and clearly written. There are so many options, especially with the add-on pack.
For Baby O's costume I added ears and of course all the stripes and a collar. The collar made the neck too tight and O ran around the house screaming every time I tried to put the hoodie on him. It was pretty funny!! So I had to cut down the collar and front of the shirt, lengthen the collar and add a snap. Later I added a name tag that snapped to cover the opening I cut.
I have heavily modified each pattern and make no claims to ownership of these patterns. I am also not receiving any monetary compensation for anything that I share.
R's costume may seem very different, but it is also a very heavily modified JRR with Add-on. I enlarged the hood and gave it a bit of a point in the center front, added the ears and the dreads in the back. I sure wish I had a good picture of them. I also lengthened the sleeves and torso to accommodate for the layers in the sleeves and the rough hem line. This hoodie was so much fun to make and I can only thanks Patterns for Pirates for it!
