How to make a goblin costume with your own hands: a simple way

In a simple version, to create a costume of goblin, you can combine a regular shirt (the scum will be preferable) and pants or breeches-it is best to use the color of khaki or a gray-green gamut. Garnish the trousers with multi-colored patches and myta in different places of fringe-use some kind of soft and voluminous fabric to cut it.
It needs to be cut (as much as possible) with wide and narrow stripes, and then at a small angle sew them on a jacket in its different places - in the middle, from above and along the edge. Small thin pieces of stripes can be taken in bundles, and sew them on the sleeve cuffs and shoulders.
On the fringes of the fringe, you need to start down. Your goblin will look more extravagant if you decorate his clothes in different places with pieces of grids. If the costume is prepared for the New Year holiday, decorate the costume with a rain or sparkles.

Mascarable costume of goblin dressed in a hoodie

This type of Leshi's costume will be performed a little more complicated than the previous one, since the hoodie will need to be sewn. Pants can remain the same as in the previous version. But you will not have any special difficulties in sewing, since making a hoodie pattern is quite simple.
Cover the fabric in the form of 4 rectangles of different sizes for the back, 2 sleeves and shelves. Let the back be more authentic than before - so the costume will become more spectacular.
Do not process either the neck or the lower part in the hoodie, on the contrary, it will be more interesting if you endure as many threads from these parts so that they hang. The goblin often gets through the thickets and Bourlomas - where is his clothes to survive!
It would be nice to cut the bottom and sleeves of a hoodie in the form of fringe. You can put a beautiful twine on the sheathing of the neck - try to “disfigure” it as much as possible with wide, through the edge, stitches.

Additional details and accessories for the costume of the goblin

Fur pieces of mythe to a variety of places of the costume of the goblin - they will portray moss, clinging to the hoodie during the wandering of the goblin through the forest.
Fettle fabric of different colors is perfect for creating forest attributes from it - leaflets, twigs, acorns, cones etc. But if you are not ready to engage in such needlework, then you can purchase an application in the store and sew them in different places of the suit.
Artificial fur or velvet is suitable for sewing a belt - a hoodie or a shirt is tied to it.
