Step 1: Make the template for the unicorn costume and then sew.
First measure the head and length of the body (from neck to tail) from the dog. Take a piece of paper and draw the same shapes as shown in the photo. It would be easier if you fold the sheet in the middle, so you will get identical pages when cutting. Before cutting off the fabric according to the template, check that the template suits the dog.
For the hood:
- Draw a semicircular shape on the white cloth according to the size of the original.
- You need 2 semicircular pieces that you sew together to make the hood.
For the torso:
- Tear over the original # 2 on the white cloth.
- Cut the shape twice.
Assembly:
- Sew the torso and the hood together.
- You should have two pieces for the unicorn costume to have two sides.

-
- ears

- Sew the mane and the cloak together.
- Cut a triangle out of the iridescent fabric and sew the long sides together.
- Fill the horn with the cotton wool.
- Sew on the open end.
