Sewing the costume

You will need to measure your dog to determine how much fabric you will need. Add 2 inches to the length measurement for seam allowance and allow extra for the belly band.

Turn the fabric right side out.

For the belly band, measure your dog’s waist and add 2 inches for seam allowance. Cut a strip of fabric this length and 2 inches wide. Fold the strip in half lengthwise and sew along the long side, leaving one short side open. Turn the fabric right side out.

Adding the details

After you have the basic hockey player costume, it’s time to add the details that will really make it stand out. Find a white or black t-shirt and use fabric paint to add your favorite team’s logo. If you don’t have a team, just make up your own! You can also add your own personal number to the back of the shirt. Use permanent marker to add realistic-looking stitches to the shirt and pants. Attach velcro strips to the back of the shirt so it can be easily removed when needed. Finally, don’t forget to add a hockey stick!

Finishing the costume

Finish the costume by attaching the jersey to the pants. You can do this by sewing the jersey to the pants, or by safety pinning it in place. If you are using a fake jersey, be sure to attach it securely so that it does not come loose during wear. Finally, add any accessories that you wish to complete the look, such as hockey gloves a stick, and a helmet.
