Looking for a great DIY Halloween costume idea? This simple sheep costume is easy and oh-so cute.

Create this cute, fuzzy costume by using a vest from your closet as a pattern. Cut your sheep hide out of shearling fabric, finishing the edges with a zigzag stitch to control shedding. Using the same fabric, make a hood and attach ears.

This idea is also great for a family costume, with mom dressed up as Little Bo Peep and the kids playing her little flock. Just be careful to keep them close so they don't wander off like Bo Peep's did.

There's more where this came from. Look through more homemade Halloween costumes!
