Take your Twig + Tale® vest, coat or cape and pair it with this Animal Add-on for a fun, yet practical garment that keeps you warm as you run wild!

Skill level:  Beginner - Adventurous beginner (animals with manes are a little more work)

14 Animal Options: 
Fox, Unicorn, Lion, Bear, Bunny, Dino, Cat, Mouse, Giraffe, Zebra, Horse, Donkey, Ladybird and Puppy

 

 What's Included:

  1. Animal hood pattern pieces (specific to the original garment pattern)

  3. Animal tails 
  4. Animal pocket piece with options for claws + paw prints
  5. Full sewing instructions

 What's NOT Included:

The base Twig + Tale® garment pattern.
You will need to purchase a T+T® vest, coat or cape pattern separately. 

COMPATIBILITY

There are compatible Animal Add-ons for the following Twig + Tale® patterns. 

Pathfinder Vest - all sizes  
Pixie Pea Coat - child sizes
Grove Coat - all sizes
Traveller Cape - all sizes
Petal Wrap Dress - use the Baby + Child VEST add-on

The Adult Add-ons include both size ranges for both the Women's/Curved Fit AND both size ranges for the Men's Straight Fit.

ANIMAL ADD-ON FAQ

Q:   Will this include the pattern for the actual garment?
A:  You must purchase a compatible Twig + Tale® vest, coat or cape pattern separately, as these animal add-ons do NOT contain all the pattern pieces for the base garment.

Q:   Can I use the same animal add-on for all the kids patterns?
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.  (The exception is the Child Pathfinder + Child Pixie Pea Coat (not Grove Coat) add-on pattern pieces which can be used interchangeably.)

Q:   Is there an add-on for the Adults?
A: 
Lucky you, the Adult VEST Animal add-on and the Adult COAT Animal add-on includes both the Men's/Straight Fit AND Women's Curved Fit size ranges in each - bonus!  The Adult Traveller Cape and Overland Cloak are gender expansive patterns.

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.

Dragons are Animals

Using the adult animal vest add on plus the free child's dragon add on to create 2 adult dragon pathfinders was such fun. The possibilities are huge with the animal options and achieving something amazing is as easy as following step by step

Thrilled with this pattern

I couldn’t be more pleased with the instructions and clarity for this vest. I’m excited to have a pattern that can grow with my kid and all the exciting animal add-ons and possibilities. the only instruction I wished was clearer was how to best make the ossicones stand up straight.

Sewing for grandbabies

I wish these patterns with their add ons, tips and hacks had been around when my children were little. Instead I get to sew for my grandchildren - probably a more fun option. Patterns are easy to follow. Thanks Twig and Take.

Outstanding and versatile pattern!

Wow!! What a great pattern!! Honestly I want one for myself! Super easy to follow, taking you thru it step-by-step. I did a Bear pathfinder for carnaval but with beautiful fabric so my girl can use the vest again and again. The garment is absolutely stunning! See the pics!
