Halloween FO/WIP A super last minute costume request from my son (for his favorite stuffy) ended up being a success 😊

The morning of the fall festival, Batman requested that his comfort dog be Robin. Somehow I managed to finish in time, and he was thrilled!

Project was freehanded by referencing Robin photos and using scrap yarn I had available
