Here’s how to upcycle an old zipper jacket to make a new dog jacket.
1. Figure out how long you want the arms of your jacket to be. I decided to make the sleeves so that they would hit Neko at the middle of her arms. She likes to dig, so I didn’t want the sleeves to get in the way of that.
2. Cut the sleeves to the measured length.
3. Fold the cut edge of the sleeves towards the inside of the sleeves. Iron and pin in place.
4. Sew the sleeves edges.
5. Find your dog model and try it on!
Neko was a bit shy for her modeling debut, but I was able to get a few photos of her in her new digs.
