Free Pattern: Turkey Goose Set

We are having so much fun dressing our house geese! I just can’t get the outfits made fast enough. I will definitely keep designing them until we have a different one for each month and more.

This turkey suit takes a little bit longer to make so I did one like this for my parent’s goose and a simple fall sweater version for mine. This simple sweater was made from the same pattern, without the added neck and features.

Watch for more fancy outfits to be released throughout the year. You can find more “Ducke and Goose” patterns at THIS LINK.

Before attaching the tail feathers to the suit, we will reinforce it by creating some “ribs”. 

Fold the piece in half, right sides together. With a yarn needle and matching yarn, sew the layers together right next to the folded edge. See the photo below.

Open up the piece. Fold the piece as shown in the photo below. Sew the fold as before.

Repeat for the opposite edge. Open up the tail feather piece. 

Place the right side of the feather piece against the turkey suit and pin in place. This is easiest to do when the suit is on the goose.

With a yarn needle and matching yarn, sew the bottom section of the feather piece (the area within the box in the photo below) to the turkey suit.

Stretch the end points of the outer orange row up two rows and forward (towards the front). Pin in place. 

With a yarn needle and matching yarn, sew these points in place. This will help the tail feathers stand out.

Slip the suit on over the goose head first. I hope your goose loves his new turkey suit.
