| Expectant goats |
Early spring kidding can mean cold spring weather. While I've been waiting in expectant anticipation, I've been making baby goat coats. March can be mild and spring-like, or cold and winter-like, so I wanted to be prepared. I used a puppy dog coat pattern I found on clearance.

| Simplicity 2013 |
I used a thrift shop sweatshirt for the fabric, and was able to make three little coats from that one sweat shirt.
I simplified it by hand sewing the two layers together with a blanket stitch and leftover sock yarn. I wasn't sure if the size was right, so I used longer strips of velcro so that I could adjust as necessary.
Now I just need a model to try it on. That will hopefully happen soon.
