Hallo-wiener by Dav Pilkey

Dav Pilkey is a great children's book author. The Hallo-wiener is a fun Halloween themed book.

Suggested Book: Hallo-wiener by Dav Pilkey
Suggested Patterns:
Unfortunately, there's no one pattern that would work well here, so you'll have to experiment here a bit.

Hotdog by Hannah Kaminsky (Free, Crochet) Just knit the buns from this pattern - but wait until you make the wiener dog below.
